/**
 * Sets a property by name, or set of properties (from file or
 * resource) in the project.  </p>
 * Properties are immutable: whoever sets a property first freezes it for the
 * rest of the build; they are most definitely not variable.
 * <p>There are five ways to set properties:</p>
 * <ul>
 *   <li>By supplying both the <i>name</i> and <i>value</i> attribute.</li>
 *   <li>By supplying both the <i>name</i> and <i>refid</i> attribute.</li>
 *   <li>By setting the <i>file</i> attribute with the filename of the property
 *     file to load. This property file has the format as defined by the file used
 *     in the class java.util.Properties.</li>
 *   <li>By setting the <i>resource</i> attribute with the resource name of the
 *     property file to load. This property file has the format as defined by the
 *     file used in the class java.util.Properties.</li>
 *   <li>By setting the <i>environment</i> attribute with a prefix to use.
 *     Properties will be defined for every environment variable by
 *     prefixing the supplied name and a period to the name of the variable.</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>Although combinations of these ways are possible, only one should be used
 * at a time. Problems might occur with the order in which properties are set, for
 * instance.</p>
 * <p>The value part of the properties being set, might contain references to other
 * properties. These references are resolved at the time these properties are set.
 * This also holds for properties loaded from a property file.</p>
 * Properties are case sensitive.
