Hello all, Maybe my brain is not evolved enough to be able to trace through what happens with command-line arguments as they're parsed through all the shell scripts... but I really can't figure out how to pass more than a single JVM option on the command line.
Unless someone has an obvious workaround that I'm missing, I'd like to propose something that is actually pretty standard in JVM tools: using -J. From javac: -J<flag> Pass <flag> directly to the runtime system So "javac -J-Xmx1g" would pass "-Xmx1g" to the underlying JVM. You can use several of those to pass multiple options (unlike --driver-java-options), so it helps that it's a short syntax. Unless someone has some issue with that I'll work on a patch for it... (well, I'm going to do it locally for me anyway because I really can't figure out how to do what I want to otherwise.) -- Marcelo
