eclipse - how to fix "Failed to write core dump. Core dumps have been disabled" error while running java

Question

i am using eclipse to develop a web application and i have encountered a problem when i am trying to run my application on server from within eclipse.

i googled it and found a possible solution here that suggests : "A minimal workaround is to add -XX:LoopUnrollLimit=1 as an argument." the problem is i don't know where to add this argument and how to add it. can any one help me about it?

thanks.

EDIT : I updated my jdk from 1.7_9 to 1.7_40 but problem stands still.

In linux mint 16, for me, the solution was change the eclipse theme from GTK to Classic and write in eclipse.ini this:

-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla
