Description tim abell

Build Identifier: 

I'm trying to profile sqlHawk, and it runs fine in run & debug mode, but fails when run in profile mode with an argument error. It looks like the profiler is mangling the command line arguments.
http://timwise.wikispaces.com/sqlHawk

Running with the following arguments (which arent' enough for the program, but enough to demonstrate the issue):
  --scm-input --database-output --db-type mssql05-jtds

Under "run" outputs the expected output:
  Error: Parameter 'target-path' is required.

Under profile, the output is:
  Error: Unknown flag 'datab--db-type'.
  Error: Unexpected argument: mssql05-jtds
  Error: Parameter 'target-path' is required.

Very irritating.


Reproducible: Always

Hi Tim, would you be able to provide screenshots of the tabs from the Profile Configurations dialog for your launch?

(If you were profiling with the 'Java Application' launch type, the useful tabs would be 'Main', 'Arguments', 'Classpath', 'Profile Settings' for our purposes on this bug)

Thanks!

No response from originator for a few months after we ask for more info.  Resolving as invalid.
