Setting the Java VM Using the -vm Parameter

With the installation of the Developer Studio a Java VM is assigned to the start link. If this Java VM is installed on your PC, you only need to specify the new path using the argument -vm.

Proceed as follows:

  1. Click the corresponding desktop shortcut using the right mouse button and subsequently choose Properties from the context menu.
  2. Choose the Shortcut tab.
  3. Under Target, add the argument -vm <vm_location> to the command line, or modify the location when the-vm argument already exists.
  4. Choose OK to confirm.
