Synopsis Please launch new VM for -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true
Category javawebstart:maintenance
Reported Against merlin
Release Fixed 1.4.2(mantis)
State 10-Fix Delivered, bug
Priority: 4-Low
Related Bugs
Submit Date 17-OCT-2000
Description
If an application requests the following property:

-Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true

Java Web Start should launch it in a new VM with that property set. This will
allow applications which use OpenGL on Windows (which is fundamentally
incompatible with DirectDraw, otherwise used in the 2D subsystem) to work.
Work Around
N/A
Evaluation
We can fix in launcher.c as per requested.

This bug was only partially fixed in 1.0.1_02, see suggested fix.
A little more needs to be done for 1.3, namely passing on the aux args -DXXX to
subsequenbt double launches of java.

This remaining part is a bug, not an rfe so am changing to bug for mantis.
