Hi Matthias,
Hi Marius,
Thanks for your comments. That's what I thought.

Hmm. The 'tool' would be java. As far as I have seen java is
never/seldom in the tool dependencies. Hence, the system's java
installation is used for which we do not know if it is Sun/OpenJDK or
which version it is (in addition the installation will likely not change
on production systems for a long time). So I guess fixing this in java
would not help here in reasonable time anyway.
So, it seems that the best option is to:
- switching back to _JAVA_OPTIONS (which seems to be implemented also on
usegalaxy.org)
- handling the output in each java tool
This is also what usegalaxy.eu is using and we have special destinations
for java tools.
Are there any guidelines for wrapping java based applications (or other
programming languages)?
- add java to dependencies? I think this should be done, or?
This should be part of the dependencies of your tool already, isn't it?
So MSGFplus should depend on a java version of their choice.
See here:
https://github.com/bioconda/bioconda-recipes/blob/master/recipes/msgf_plus/meta.yaml#L15
- if yes: is there a favored conda package?
openjdk if needed.
Ciao,
Bjoern
Cheers,
Matthias
P.S. I just added java to my list of despicable programming languages.

Hi Matthias,
if a tool prints something to the stderr that is indeed considered to
indicate a failure, and it's the default mostly because
we don't want to break legacy tools that make this assumption. If you
include a profile version in your tool
or change your command section to <command
detect_errors="exit_code"></commands> this will more reasonably determine
if a tool failed based on the exit code.
Best,
Marius

Dear list,
I'm struggling to set java options for galaxy tools. Currently I use
`<env file="job_setup_script.sh"/> in my job_conf.xml and in the
script
I explored two ways to set java options:
`_JAVA_OPTIONS="-Xmx5G -Xms1G -Djava.io.tmpdir=/work/songalax/tmp"`
But then java prints "Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: ..." to stderr
which is
be interpreted as error by some tools. If I'm correct this is
currently
the default .. I have seen this happening, but can't remember the
name
of the tool.
So I switched to this 'trick':
`alias java='java -Xmx5G -Xms1G -Djava.io.tmpdir=/work/songalax/tmp'`
but the problem is that the tool script is called and not sourced and
therefore aliases are not used (could this be changed?). Furthermore,
for tools which explicitly set the java options my settings would be
ignored anyway (an example is the MSGFPlusAdapter which calles `java
-Xmx3500m` .. so my -Xmx is overwritten .. I passing
GALAXY_MEMORY_MB to
the corresponding parameter might be a solution for this tool).
Any thought or suggestions on how to set the parameters in a
production
environment are very welcome.
Cheers,
Matthias
