JAVAVM_OPTS.CONF(5)      DragonFly File Formats Manual     JAVAVM_OPTS.CONF(5)


NAME

     javavm_opts.conf - the Java VM wrapper options configuration file.


DESCRIPTION

     The file javavm_opts.conf contains variables which set options that
     should be passed to the Java VM that is invoked by the Java VM wrapper.

     Which Java VM a variable provides options for is determined by the
     variable name.  The Java VM wrapper currently recognises the following
     patterns for variable names:

     JAVAVM_OPTS
             The options specified by this variable are passed to all Java VM
             invocations.  In practise, this variable should be reserved for
             use on the command line and not set in javavm_opts.conf.

     JAVAVM_OPTS_JAVA_HOME_DIR
             The contents of this variable are passed as options to all java
             commands invoked by javavm within the JAVA_HOME_DIR directory
             specified.  The JAVA_HOME_DIR specified here is the directory
             portion of JAVA_HOME with special characters replaced by an
             underscore.

     JAVAVM_OPTS_JAVA_PROG
             The contents of this variable are passed as options to all
             invocations of the specified java programme.

     JAVAVM_OPTS_JAVA_HOME_DIR_JAVA_PROG
             The contents of this variable are passed as options to the
             invocation of the specified java programme within the specified
             JAVA_HOME directory.  This allows the options to only affect a
             single programme.


FILES

     /usr/local/etc/javavm_opts.conf
             The location of the Java VM wrapper options configuration file.

     /usr/local/etc/javavm_opts.conf.dist
             The location of the example Java VM wrapper options configuration
             file distributed with the Java VM wrapper.


EXAMPLES

     JAVAVM_OPTS_diablo_jdk1_5_0=-XX:+UseMembar
             Run the Java VMs installed by the Diablo JDK in
             /usr/local/diablo-jdk1.5.0 with the option "-XX:+UseMembar".

     JAVAVM_OPTS_javac=-deprecation
             Run the javac programme with the option "-deprecation".

     JAVAVM_OPTS_diablo_jdk1_5_0_javac=-Xlint
             Run the javac installed by the Diablo JDK with the option
             "-Xlint".

     Due to stacking, if the above three variables were set, then the javac
     installed by the Diablo JDK would run with the options "-XX:+UseMembar
     -deprecation -Xlint" (although not necessarily in that order).
