Hi everyone, for the last few months, I've had the error line "Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Xverify:none" appear as the first line in the console when using Eclipse (and other Java-based things). In this time, I've scraped the web for every single possible solution to this problem, but nothing I've found worked (including other posts on this forum that mention the problem). I'm using Mac OS X El Capitan.

Entering "unset _JAVA_OPTIONS" in terminal would successfully remove the environment variable (checked with the "printenv" command), but it would reappear upon opening a new terminal window. I had a breakthrough yesterday, when I put the unset command in my .bashrc file, and wrote "source .bashrc" in my .bash_profile (since .bashrc also applies to all new shells opened). Amazingly, this worked, and the error message no longer appeared in Eclipse.

Today, upon going back to Eclipse, the error message returned! I had not changed any of my files or settings after the original solution; all of my previous edits to the .bash files were the same, but no longer had any effect. Despite the "printenv" command showing that the variable does not exist, the error message persists. Additionally, in my Eclipse Run Configurations, the _JAVA_OPTIONS environment variable is unset.

I've spent lots of time trying to fix this, but to no avail. I've completely uninstalled Java/Eclipse from my computer multiple times, but this still reoccurs. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
