Windows Tomcat Service jvm -JvmSs parameter

I see references to the JvmSs parameter in the Tomcat Doco

--JvmSs     Thread stack size in KB

There is nothing in the Oracle JVM doco about this. (Correct me if I'm wrong)

Is this an obselete Java parameter, in the format of Tomcat doco bitrot - or is this a specific Tomcat service running on Windows thing?

Solution

  • This is a Tomcat specific thing, and I think it is specific to the Windows service launcher. It is pretty clear that it maps to the JVM -Xss option.

    There has never been a --JvmSs option on any Sun / Oracle JVM ... to my knowledge.
