JDK-7072364 - Add vmArgs arg to DT and plugin launchApp function, to avoid relaunch on FX apps
Description
see JIRA RT-153954 - Demos wont launch as webstart link not working.
The problem is the docbase is being passed in from DT as file://c:\foo\bar.html
this is not valid URL in java - need to convert backslashed to forwardslashes.
Comments
EVALUATION real fix - converting docbase of file:// to file:/ was put in as part of implementation of 7072364. closing as dupe

EVALUATION fix needed in processLaunchPropFile in Main, convert to forward slashes before constructing docBase URL.
