I tried setting the values in eclipse.ini, that does not work.
I think now I have stumbled on a decent solution, better than the
options we've had up till now. If you open windows->preferences in
eclipse, then select Installed JREs, and select the jre you use and
click edit. Now a window pops up that lets you put in default VM
arguments. I put in my UMLS credentials here and that seemed to work.
In theory this should then work for all run configurations, you
shouldn't have to re-do it for new run configurations.
Can someone else please verify that this works? And if so should we
make this the default way to do it in developer setup? Any downsides
I'm missing?
