Description mago_ebon 2011-11-11 13:28:21 UTC 
While attaching a profiler to an applet, the profiler gives you some instructions to add the profiler as a parameter. The parameter will always be ignored in runtime.

According to Sun (Bug id 6763455, http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do;jsessionid=d4e69b71cb63c19a6a07aff2e188?bug_id=6763455), this is not a Java bug.

It just seems to be that the instructions does not include proper quoting, but after several attempts still haven't been able to understand how to make it work.

I have also done the obvious things to test it: restarting the browser, restarting the computer, testing several browsers, etc.

It works for me on:

Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201111100600)
Java: 1.7.0; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 21.0-b18
System: Windows 7 version 6.1 running on x86; Cp1252; en_US (nb)

are you sure you put the parameter (including the quotation marks) in the correct place ie. the "Runtime Parameters" field of Java Runtime Enviroment Settings?
