How to use junit formatter with knapsack_pro queue mode in Cucumber?

Please provide in --out argument directory path where xml files for each test file will be created. It must be a directory in order to work in Queue Mode because in Queue Mode the Cucumber test runner is executed multiple times. Each time for set of tests fetched from Queue so it means multiple xml files will be created in junit format.
