Thanks for the tip.  I still don't seem to get it, based on what you are
saying my config should change to:

> ...
> <plugin>
>        <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
>        <artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
>        <executions>
>          <execution>
>            <id>client</id>
>            <goals>
>              <goal>exec</goal>
>            </goals>
>        <configuration>
>          <executable>foo</executable>
>          <arguments>
>            <argument>-classpath</argument>
>            <classpath/>
>            <argument>A B C D</argument>
>          </arguments>
>        </configuration>
>          </execution>
          ... [ more execution definitions here]
>        </executions>
>      </plugin>

However maven complains with the following error:

---------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] One or more required plugin parameters are invalid/missing for
'exec:exec
'

[0] inside the definition for plugin: 'exec-maven-plugin'specify the
following:

<configuration>
  ...
  <executable>VALUE</executable>
</configuration>

-OR-

on the command line, specify: '-Dexec.executable=VALUE'
---------------------------------

Assuming I were to get the config right, I am still not understanding how I
would distinguish between one execution or another from the command line. 
My goal is that I want to use Maven to launch execution A, or execution B -
not both.

thanks!
