Re: [jboss-as7-dev] Changed arguments…can we do better ? :P

> I am very much in favor of a shared file for win and linux. I just don't have any bandwidth to do it for 7.1.0 (1.1 maybe). Such a solution would require that JBoss Tools parse the file since we have a chicken/egg problem with VM launching on standalone, and we don't want to have a JVM launching a JVM in a standalone setup (adds too much time to boot). It might also require that we write a native launcher on windows. > > Although keep in mind that none of those JVM parameters are absolutely necessary. We got rid of logmodule, which was the only required one. There is a couple of settings for bootstrap logging, but the system will still work without it. For me there are two different kind of arguments/parameters. The one that are JVM specific/required at Java VM startup and those that are non-JVM specific and can be read by the launcher it self. It is the latter I'm suggesting to externalize. OS specific/required at Java VM is currently for standalone.sh (as far as I can see?): -d32 -client -Xms64m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000* -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000* -Djava.awt.headless=true* -jar "/Users/max/jboss-runtimes/jboss-as-7.1.0.Final-SNAPSHOT/jboss-modules.jar" *=might not be necessary to setup - depend if those are not getting activated during jboss modules. Arguments that I would think could be derived by the java launch instead of at command line: -Dorg.jboss.resolver.warning=true -Djboss.modules.system.pkgs=org.jboss.byteman "-Dorg.jboss.boot.log.file=/Users/max/jboss-runtimes/jboss-as-7.1.0.Final-SNAPSHOT/standalone/log/boot.log" "-Dlogging.configuration=file:/Users/max/jboss-runtimes/jboss-as-7.1.0.Final-SNAPSHOT/standalone/configuration/logging.properties" -mp "/Users/max/jboss-runtimes/jboss-as-7.1.0.Final-SNAPSHOT/modules" -jaxpmodule javax.xml.jaxp-provider org.jboss.as.standalone -Djboss.home.dir="/Users/max/jboss-runtimes/jboss-as-7.1.0.Final-SNAPSHOT" Most of these could just be calculated based on jboss.home.dir as a nice default. Leaving us with: -Dorg.jboss.resolver.warning=true -Djboss.modules.system.pkgs=org.jboss.byteman -jaxpmodule javax.xml.jaxp-provider Which could be read in via a properties file or even defaulted? But Jason, I'm reading your mail as you even want to go to the length of having the vm arguments externalized? /max http://about.me/maxandersen _______________________________________________ jboss-as7-dev mailing list jboss-as7-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/jboss-as7-dev
