Hi all,

I want to run eclipse through a desktop shortcut on windows with the -Duser.timezone argument you can use on the command line.

My shortcut target looks like this:

C:\Alan\SDK\3.7.1\eclipse.exe -vm "c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_22\bin\javaw.exe" -vmargs -Xmx512m -Xmx1024M -XX:PermSize=128M -XX:MaxPermSize=256M

As you can see I have increased memory space with the -X.. arguments. For whatever reason though I can't type -Duser.timezone=Europe/Dublin after the -vmargs entry. Is it not possible to do this through a shortcut? I can use this -D argument from the command line no problem.

Thanks,
Alan
