Configuration of java Engines via engines.json #840

I am using cutechess-cli mainly with a java chess engine.

In Version 1.2 this works perfectly fine configuring the engines.json file e.g. with the following:

{ "workingDirectory": "/jackychess", "command": "java -Djacky.logging.activate=true -Djacky.logging.level=SEVERE -Duser.home=/logs -jar /jackychess/jackychess-25.04se.jar", "name": "jacky25.04se", "protocol": "uci", "options": [{"name": "Threads", "value": "1"}, {"name": "Hash","value": "128"}] }

However, in the latest version 1.4 this does not work anymore. Your examples of the command string only show a sinlge command to execute. So maybe there is now a special way to add the arguments of the command?

So my questions is:
How do I configure in the latest version a java engine with command arguments in the engines.json file?
