I am experiencing a strange behaviour. I am launching an installanywhere exe from my java class using ProcessBuilder. I am passing some args for the jvm like
lax.nl.java.option.additional=-Dvis.oldZoom=false -DSystemRoot="C:\Windows" -Dlog4j.configuration=file:"/location to log4.xml/" -DLOG4J_CONFIG_FILE=file:"/location to log4.xml/" -Dlog4j.debug=true
The last three params are for log4j and they are my problem
I have log4j jars in classpath
lax.class.path=other jars;log4j-1.2.17.jar
But nothing comes up, there is no log and no java process. What could be missing here?
Update Instead of this
The last three params are for log4j and they are my problem
Actually what I was trying to say is that they should be there I know that. And I expect the log4j logging to be up and nicely setup after these params and jars inclusion but the problem is that it(logs) don't come up.
lax.nl.java.option.additional in your lax file should define these.
Can you "write" to the lax file if these need to be added or removed ad-hoc during your execution?
Alternatively I would just create a launch config for each set of args you might need, so you have the convenience of just accessing the specific launcher, not having to mess with additional switches.
