How to set preferIPv4Stack property for JNLP app?

up vote 2 down vote favorite

I need to set java.net.preferIPv4Stack=true to an app started via JNLP (javaws and applet)

Tried those, without luck...

<j2se ...java-vm-args="-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true" />
<property name="java.net.preferIPv4Stack" value="true"/>
System.setProperty("java.net.preferIPv4Stack", "true");

The only way i could make it work was seeting when launching javaws from local filesystem:

javaws -J-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true myapp.jnlp

What is not possible on a applet or URL.

How should i set this property?

With the Java 7 Update 6 (b17) the list of secure properties has been updated. See Bug Report 716069for further Details.

You can include this setting by specifying the following line within the resource tag:

<property name="java.net.preferIPv4Stack" value="true"/>

The only properties that you can set in the JNLP are those considered secure which do not includejava.net.preferIPv4Stack.

The alternative options you have are (not tested):

pass the parameter directly to javaws like you did: javaws -J-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true myapp.jnlp
Java Control Panel > Java > View > Runtime Parameters, but that is a global setting for all webstart applications and applets using the version of the JRE for which you changed the setting
use an environment variable: JAVAWS_VM_ARGS = -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
flag the setting as secure by adding a line to the deployment.properties file, located in the Deployment Home(*) : deployment.javaws.secure.properties=java.net.preferIPv4Stack- note: not sure if this is available Java > 1.5.

The first 3 options are detailed in this document.

_{(*) Deployment Home:
Windows XP: %HOME%\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment
Windows 7/Vista: %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment
Linux/Solaris: %HOME%/.java/deployment}

	The problem is you would have to teach that to your applet's users :) – Julio Faerman Jul 19 at 17:44
	@JulioFaerman Regarding option 4, I think you can install an extension and add this line to the clients' deployment.properties file... Never done that though. – assylias Jul 19 at 17:53
	did not know that, will check, many tnx! – Julio Faerman Jul 20 at 2:52

Also, for future readers - environment variable for applets:

_JPI_VM_OPTIONS

e.g.

_JPI_VM_OPTIONS=-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true

For development is ok, but for users... – Julio Faerman Jul 19 at 17:45
