202249 - Would like to be able to specify JRE classpath and other parameters at runtime, before the JRE is invoked

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, enhancement)

It would be nice to be able to specify initial parameters for the java plugin at
runtime before it is invoked, including the classpath and parameters set up via
javaplugin.jre.params in the java plugin control panel.  This would allow
multiple XUL apps that use the java plugin to work nicely together without
dependency issues, effectively allowing their required java parameters to be
self-contained.  This wish differs from bug 41961 in that it would not require
the JRE to dynamically change the classpath after it has been invoked, and also
involves other parameters besides the classpath.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
