[jboss-dev] VM arguments finally coming to boot.log

[Galder Zamarreno]

Hi,

I've just implemented https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-5240 using 
java.lang.management.RuntimeMXBean.getInputArguments();

Example:

13:44:43,226 INFO [ServerInfo] VM arguments: -Dprogram.name=run.sh 
-Xms128m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Dorg.jboss.resolver.warning=true 
-Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000 
-Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000 -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true 
-Djava.endorsed.dirs=/home/galder/jboss/code/as/trunk/build/output/jboss-6.0.0.Alpha1/lib/endorsed

This is a much better solution than the one originally suggested in the 
jira. This is also a much needed information from a support point of 
view and the fact that from now on it's logged in boot.log reduces the 
pieces of information we need to get from customer (before we needed 
either console output to see these options or for the customer to spell 
it out for us).

Hence, the following line in all of our run scripts should be removed as 
it's obsolete:

echo " JAVA_OPTS: $JAVA_OPTS"

Thoughts?
