Eclipse RCP Application cannot use -vm & -console together?

In my Java application .ini, I have specified a dedicated version of JVM to use. If launching by double clicking the .exe, the application will use the JVM specified in the .ini.

However, if launching in command line with -console option, it won't use the JVM specified in the .ini. Remove the -console option fixes the issue.

The error message is "Java was started but returned exit code=1". And in the pop up window, I am seeing both the -vm <my JVM path> and -vm C:\Windows\system32\java.exe. Looks like -console option adding some extra options to the launch configuration including the 2nd -vm.

Why is that? If I need both -vm & -console options, how do I do that?

Turned out that I use my own JRE package, which has the java.dll deleted for shrinking package size. Without java.dll, the -console option won't work. Since there was no error message, so it's hard to find root cause.
