package org.eclipse.jdt.launching;
Optional extensions that may be implemented by an IVMInstall
.
When an IVMInstall
implements this interface,
clients must call getVMArgs()
in place of
getVMArguments()
and setVMArgs(String)
in place of
setVMArguments(String[])
. This avoids the problem noted
in bug 73493.
Additionally, this interface optionally provides the Java version
associated with a VM install.
Clients that implement IVMInstall
may additionally implement this interface. However, it is strongly recommended that clients subclass AbstractVMInstall
instead, which already implements this interface, and will insulate clients from additional API additions in the future.
Since: 3.1
