#165 The -splash jvm option doesn't seem to work...

[Sharcoux]

I don't get why the jvm -splash option doesn't work with launch4j whereas it works if I use it directly.

Here is my xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<launch4jConfig>
  <dontWrapJar>true</dontWrapJar>

  </versionInfo>
</launch4jConfig>

Is there anything wrong ?

Ok, I discovered that it actually works... But only if I choose to bundle the jre. If I let the wrapper find the jre, the -splash option is just ignored... Any idea ?

[Grzegorz Kowal]

Can you also run it with option --l4j-debug and post the created logfile? It should work for the non-bundled JRE as well. I couldn't find anything in the help forums, but somehow this does not seem completely new...
