If you start debugging by calling "run to cursor" (pressing F4) then command line arguments are not passed to the degugging session. If you start debugging by calling "step into" (pressing F7) then command line arguments are noramlly passed to the degugging session.

This was caused by the fix of bug #147467.
There's no nice solution to this I guess, since Run/Debug File does not run the main class with arguments specified in project properties.

I'll probably revert the fix of bug #147467, since that seems to add the inconsistency.

Not a P1 - there's easy workaround: Submit a breakpoint on the line and debug the project. Other IDEs even do not allow to start debugger via Run to Cursor.
