How to override config file compiler argument -load-config?

I noticed that GradleFx automatically chooses the config file to use depending on the artifact type (what gets specified in the '-load-config=blah' compiler argument). However, we have a specially crafted config.xml that we would like to use instead, but it's not clear to me how we override that setting. Is it exposed at all? If not, any suggestions on how to work around it?

Thanks!

   it has no dedicated convention property, but you can specify it with the 'additionalCompilerOptions' property:

   additionalCompilerOptions = [
       '-load-config=myconfig.xml'
   ]

   Thank you, Yennick. That seems to work, although I notice the compiler options list both the '-load-config+=/path/to/SDK/frameworks/flex-config.xml' followed by my own '-load-config=/path/to/my/config.xml'. I imagine the settings in my config.xml will "win" since they come after (and/or use the '=' instead of '+=').

   indeed, the compiler will use your xml config since you basically override the "load-config" parameter by using "=" and because it comes last.
