When the JBE invokes maven, does it call mvn.bat or instead does it call jvm directly?

Background behind this question is to understand if I should bother defining MAVEN_OPTS or not.

Got my answer: it does NOT call the mvn executable. I deleted all but m2.conf in the bin folder and it still works.

Patrick, sorry for the delay - I took Thu-Tue as vacation.

You are correct - the Maven build participant launches Java directly, on class org.codehaus.classworlds.Launcher, with the goals as program arguments. It adds all jars in Maven's boot directory to the classpath. It also defines a couple of system properties:
-Dmaven.home=${maven.home}
-Dclassworlds.conf=${maven.home}/bin/m2.conf
