Assertions in eclipse

[Ramses de Norre]

Does anyone know how to turn on assertion checking in eclipse?

I assume you're talking about Java projects here, change your JRE to have the flags -ea

from java -help


-ea[:<packagename>...|:<classname>]
-enableassertions[:<packagename>...|:<classname>]
enable assertions

OK that did the trick!
I guess I misread the man page and I used the -esa option instead of -ea, which didn't work =).

And it's indeed for java projects.
