How to set VM options for JLink launcher executable
You can use the add-options
jlink plugin.
For example, if you want to set Xmx:
jlink --add-options="-Xmx100m" ...
To see a list of jlink plugins, run jlink --list-plugins
.
The add-options
plugin is currently documented (JDK14) as follows:
Plugin Name: add-options
Option: --add-options=<options>
Description: Prepend the specified <options> string, which may include
whitespace, before any other options when invoking the virtual machine
in the resulting image.
Beware that some of the plugins are, apparently, unstable (including add-options): https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/12/tools/jlink.html
