what's exactly meaning of "Enables overriding of any property reference with global properties"?

[sizhou]

Could anyone please give me a concrete example for this?

Thanks,

What are you trying to do? what is your use case?

[sizhou]

my intention is simple: I would like to allow a QA/Dev engineer who is going to run SOAPUI  tests to pass in some parameters as global ones when they start a test via command-line. the global variables might have same name as variables at project/test suite/test case levels,  I am just wondering what's the impact of this overriding option. I couldn't find any further detailed explanation about this flag.

Thanks,

Sizhou.

Have you tried command line option -G <parameter>=<value>?

[sizhou]

Yes, I tried  -G option in my command-line with both override option checked and unchecked.  in both case, my test picked up passed in value rather than the value saved in my soapui-settings, made me become more curious about what's the purpose of the option, what's the potential impact if I check or un-check it. 

Thanks,

Sizhou.
