Where do you put -Dvar=value arguments in Eclipse debug configurations?

Title pretty much says it all. I'm moving to a new computer setup and I have to run an Eclipse configuration with a -Dvar=value argument. I forget where to put this in Eclipse. The debug configuration arguments tab doesn't seem to be the right place.

What are these parameters called and where do I enter them in a debug configuration?

Create a launch configuration, go to the Arguments tab and enter them in the "VM argument" field

Select from main menu Run/Debug Configurations, then choose your debug configuration or create new. Select tab "Arguments" and add your -D... to "VM arguments" text area.

It is the right place. You have to put them inside the VM arguments text area.
