RRF(XS)(10): 8176797: [TESTBUG] tools/launcher/Settings.java -Xss size is too small

[Stanislav Smirnov]

Hi Chris,

changes look good, the only note, seems like formatting moved a bit
-                "-Xss" + stackSize + "000", "-XshowSettings", "-jar", testJar.getAbsolutePath());
+                    "-Xss" + (stackSize * 1024), "-XshowSettings", "-jar", testJar.getAbsolutePath());


Best regards,
Stanislav Smirnov

The -Xss256000 version is not. I'm not sure why the test chose to specify the stackSize as a String instead of an int. As part of this fix I changed it to an int, and just multiply it by 1024 in the case where -Xss is specified with a byte size rather the an k size. The test passes now on the platform where it was failing.
