Default argument for main method

Dear All,
What default value will be supplied to main method incase we are not sending any argument from command Line..

> this indicates that we can invoke a main method
without passing any actual argumnets
[EDIT] Only in the case of varargs, which you can declare your methods with, if you wish.
Example:class Foo {      
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Bar.main();  <--- won't compile
        Baz.main();
class Bar {
    public static void main(String[] args) { }
class Baz {
    public static void main(String... args) { }
}~

  • Maximum # of arguments for a method

    Is there a maximum # of arguments for a method?
    I have the following signature for a method:
    void process_l1_queue(int processnum, Scheduler level1[], Scheduler[] level2[], Scheduler[] level3[],Scheduler[] level4[],int index,int l2,int l3,int l4)when I call it with the following statement,
    level1.process_l1_queue(process_count, level1,level2,level3,level4,l1ptr, l2ptr, l3ptr,l4ptr);
    I get a cannot resolve symbol error pointing at the comma after l3ptr.
    I've deleted the l4ptr and the same error points to the ).

    wow. People can often be a bit too inflammatory with their replies here, but, at the risk of sounding like so, I would fire you on the spot if you develop an application class with that signature. There is no defense for such a signature- put some of those arguments in the constructor (this instance will always be of a certain calendar type, dollar currency), subclass- divide the functionality into smaller units. That signature is too complex and it will make every thing more difficult, particularly if some one else has to manage the code in the future. I would say, as a general rule, if you find yourself asking, will java let me put some thing this mammoth in it the way I intend, you're often using a poor design. All things being equal, you shouldn't normally have to test the limits of the JLS.

  • Possible to do default argument for method?

    Hello,
    Is it possible in JAVA to give default argument to method as in c++?
    I have a method that I want to call with only part of the argument:
    public String UpdateTrs(String amount, String RefNo1, String RefNo2=null)
    so if I have RefNo1 and no RefNo2 I could call as UpdateTrs("333", "12222"),,,
    thanks.

    Here's an example to elaborate:
    // Here's your original method:
    public String UpdateTrs(String amount, String RefNo1, String RefNo2) {
        // method implementation here
    // This overloads it to add the "default" value.
    public String UpdateTrs(String amount, String RefNo1) {
        UpdateTrs( amount, RefNo1, null);
    }This accomplishes the same thing.
    Namely, calling the method with two parameters results in the third parameter being null.
    Hope that's helpful.

  • Passing arguments to main method from a shell script

    The main method of my class accept more than 10 arguments so my shell script execute this class like this :
    java -cp xxxx mypackage.MyClass $*
    The problem is that some of those arguments allows spaces. When i execute this script like this :
    myscript.sh firstparam secondparam ...... tenthparm "eleventh param"
    or
    myscript.sh firstparam secondparam ...... tenthparm 'eleventh param'
    the java class consider that my eleventh param is 'eleven' and not 'eleventh param'
    The same class works well with an equivalent dos script.

    I had this problem once also, and I found there are several ways to fix it. One way is to replace all of the spaces in the arguments with _ characters, or you can concantate all of the arguments into one String at runtime (with spaces in between) and use code to separate the arguments out. With the quotation marks, this code would be simple. If the spaces in one argument are used to divide different parts of the argument, just make them spearate arguments.

  • Default arguments for filetype

    Is there a way to always feed an application certain command line arguments when opening a certain file type.
    For example: I save vim session files as .vis. I want to double-click the file in finder and have it run "mvim -S [filename].vis"
    Thanks!

    the way to do that would be to make your own meta application. that's easy to do with automator. start automator and choose to make an application. the workflow itself should consist of the following single 'run shell script" action
    <pre style="
    font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
    font-size: 10px;
    margin: 0px;
    padding: 5px;
    border: 1px solid #000000;
    width: 720px;
    color: #000000;
    background-color: #ADD8E6;
    overflow: auto;"
    title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
    for f in "$@"
    do
    /path/to/mvim -S "$f" &
    done</pre>
    put the full path to the unix executable for mvim in the command. save the application. then choose a .vis file, in finder and enter command+i. in the resulting popup go to the open with section and change it to be open by the application you made. then click "change all".

  • Why do we need static for main() .........?

    Why do we need static for main method
    class Sample
    public static void main(String args[])
    System.out.println("HI EVERYONE");
    }

    The Java virtual machine is another term for the Java interpreter, which is the code that ultimately runs Java programs by interpreting the intermediate byte-code format of the Java programming language. The Java interpreter actually comes in two popular forms: the interpreter itself (called java) that runs programs via the command line or a file manager, and the interpreter that is built into many popular Web browsers such as Netscape, HotJava, and the appletviewer that comes with the Java Developer's Kit. Both of these forms are simply implementations of the Java virtual machine, and we'll refer to the Java virtual machine when our discussion applies to both. When we use the term java interpreter, we're talking specifically about the command line, standalone version of the virtual machine; when we use the term Java-enabled browser (or, more simply, browser), we're talking specifically about the virtual machine built into these Web browsers.
    excerpts Orelly "Java Threads" Chapter 1. (If you don't believe me). Did i do any fundamental wrong by saying interpreter ? Is that a Sin ?
    That is why i told concentrate on what answer I gave regarding the question. I am not going to argue any more. If you don't like my comments then I am Sorry :(

  • Need Help with command line arguments for a class method

    Hey guys,
    I'm fairly new to programming in java.
    I want to a write a class method that adds up its command line arguments which are numbers. For example, if the input was .... 5 2 3....then the output would be 10.
    I have been told to use the Convert to convert a string to a double. I'm ok for writing the class method but I have no idea how to use Convert and why I need it in the method.
    Can anybody help please?

    Hey guys,
    I'm fairly new to programming in java.
    I want to a write a class method that adds up its
    command line arguments which are numbers. For
    example, if the input was .... 5 2 3....then the
    output would be 10.Okay. So you would receive the numbers to add as the String[] argument to a main method. The steps are simple:
    1) declare a variable for the count
    2) for each String in the array:
    2.1) extract the value as a double
    2.2) add this to the count
    3) output the resulting count
    I have been told to use the Convert to convert a
    string to a double.
    I'm ok for writing the class
    method but I have no idea how to use ConvertThere is no class Convert in the Java API.
    and why
    I need it in the method. Do you understand you need to somehow convert each String to a double (step 2.1)? Since Convert is unknown to me, maybe you should just take a look at class Double. It can help you do step 2.1, the rest should be trivial enough.

    does not contain a static 'Main' method suitable for an entry point

    Hi bkshn,
    This error is caused by the missing "Main" method in your project. it is the entry point of your project.
    If you want to create a EF project, you could follow the way in the aricle below.
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/data/ee712907#codefirst
    The Main method is like below.
    class Program
    static void Main(string[] args)
    using (var db = new BloggingContext())
    // Create and save a new Blog
    Console.Write("Enter a name for a new Blog: ");
    var name = Console.ReadLine();
    var blog = new Blog { Name = name };
    db.Blogs.Add(blog);
    db.SaveChanges();
    // Display all Blogs from the database
    var query = from b in db.Blogs
    orderby b.Name
    select b;
    Console.WriteLine("All blogs in the database:");
    foreach (var item in query)
    Console.WriteLine(item.Name);
    Console.WriteLine("Press any key to exit...");
    Console.ReadKey();
    And you could start to learn the EF from the following MSDN blogs.

  • Default value for a reference cursor argument to a package function

    I'm trying to do the following to allow the caller to pass in a ref cursor arg or a SrcTextID (internal). Anyway, I'm just trying to use defaults, rather than overloading the routine, but I can't figure out how to default a ref cursor variable.
    FUNCTION f_execute_query_and_build_file(
         bn_debug_mode_in                              IN           common_func.BOOLEAN_NUMBER,
         n_ahs_file_definition_id_in          IN           AHS_FILE_DEFINITION.AHS_FILE_DEFINITION_ID%TYPE,

    RETURN NUMBERThis causes a "PLS-00382 expression is of wrong type" msg. Okay, so fine. Then I thought that I would declare a package level "empty" ref cursor to act as "empty" default...which causes a "PLS-00994 Cursor Variables cannot be declared as part of a package" msg.
    Any ideas?

    Barbara what is the difference between 'DEFAULT' and
    ':=' in parameter declarations?Apparently there is no difference. My mistake. I have always used default. Somewhere along the way I obtained the misimpression that using := would overwrite a passed value, similar to the way it would when used between is/as and begin, whereas default would only use the default value if another value was not passed. I don't recall where I got that idea. The test below shows that my presumption was wrong:
    scott@ORA92> CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test
      2    (p_1 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'default value for p_1',

    Hi,
    does anybody know, how to fix this error:

    Did you create this application with an older 1.1.x version of rails, then running it with a newer 1.2.x rails? Maybe you have upgraded your rails. Check your current rails version with 'script/about'.
    You can freeze the rails version for your application. See this article:
