Description Andre Weinand CLA 2003-08-29 15:17:47 EDT 
When using Java 1.4.1's "assert" keyword, the mechanism itself isn't automatically enabled.
Since it is not obvious how to enable it via the command line ("-ea"),
it would be helpful to have some UI for it in the launch config dialog.
Comment 1 Darin Wright CLA 2003-09-02 13:32:38 EDT 
Could be done as a VM specific attribute (i.e. standard VM) on the JRE tab.
Comment 2 Darin Wright CLA 2004-03-09 10:27:48 EST 
We'd like to add a "VM arguments" section to each "installed JRE". This way a 
set of default VM arguments can be configured for a JRE, which are used each 
time the JRE is launched. This avoids having to duplicate arguments on each 
launch config. I'e like to use this approach instead of a custom UI option. 
Any objections? (See bug 37862)
Comment 3 Andre Weinand CLA 2004-03-09 10:42:38 EST 
Sounds like an excellent idea.
