This command bassically set the command line arguments for ant. -Dcommonpath.dir=$(COMMONPATH),
for example, will set the ant property ${commonpath.dir} to the environment variable $COMMONPATH.
There is probably an easier way to do this by using the property task in your build file...
<property environment="env"/>
Then refer to the environment variables like this in your build.xml ...
${env.COMMONPATH}
${env.COMMONJAR}
${env.COMMONINCLUDE}
This will save you the trouble of passing in all the command line args to map environment
variables to ant properties.
