Description John Jullion-ceccarelli 2009-09-24 15:39:45 UTC 
Suggested agentpath string is not correct if java is installed into Program Files directory. 
Spaces are not supported in the argument (by JRE) and users have to escape it manually before it works.
Comment 1 Adam Sotona 2009-09-24 17:01:21 UTC 
I don't understand what is the expected behavior.
Spaces are supported - they delimit the options.
Comment 2 neigor 2009-10-06 19:20:00 UTC 
If NB is used to profile/debug applets then NB suggests to set agentpath to stop applet after VM startup.

However, sugested string might be not valid. E.g. 
   -agentpath:C:\Program Files\NetBeans 6.7.1\profiler3\lib\deployed\jdk15\windows\profilerinterface.dll=C:\Program Files\NetBeans 
6.7.1\profiler3\lib,5140

Note the spaces in the "Netbeans 6.7.1" and "Program Files".
Copied to Java Control Panel as suggested it will not work as spaces will be treated as delimiters. 

Netbeans should suggest usable string.
Comment 3 Jiri Sedlacek 2009-11-05 11:08:27 UTC 
The whole "-agentpath" string needs to be double-quoted if there are spaces in path.
Fixed in profiler-main.
