Command Line Arguments for file i/o

I am giving the following two command lines:
C:\mydir> java store item.txt me.rep -first
C:\mydir>java store item.txt me.rep -second
What do these lines really mean? I can tell that it is given two options to the user

keek,
Traditionally On Unix command line switches are prefixed with a dash.
For example:
\rm -r -f * .*(Do NOT try this to find out what it does, unless you're using your ex-wives computer, in which case don't forget to cd / first.)
For the second and final time: We have no way knowing what the "first" or "second" switches of some arbitrary "store" class signify... you'r either going to have to work it our for yourself or provide a LOT more information... like the source code for the "store" class.

Setting Command Line Arguments for my Class

HI,
How do I set the command line arguments for my debug class. For example , I would like my user to type :
java Debug -LEVEL1
What should I do to implement this behaviour.
Thanks in advance...

     }//end MAINThis is takem from one of my command line classe (a Boyer Moore Pattern-Matching application from an exercise). I don't know if this is the best way, but thats what I have done there for passing some arguments, where the order of them isn't pre-given (you can pass the params in the order you want).
The CAPITAL vars are pre-defined final Strings holding the param-names, e.g.
public static final String ONE_PATERN = "-p";
public static final String PATERNLIST = "-plist";
public static final String PATERNFILE = "-pfile";Another trick sometimes used in Linux/Unix, if you have only false/true combinations, are numbers from pow 2 (2,4,8,16). In C they are used because of the binary representation, but it has some benefits. E.g. a value of 2 (0010) and another true set on 4 (0100) results binary in 6 (0110), so you can mix parameters in only one value, and with a byte - array you could check, if the flag for a given param is set. But this way is a little tricky for the end-user.

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.

Give it a go and feel free to post back with a specific problem you are having, accurately described if you please :-)

Hey,
I've read through all documentation but can't find a list of all available command line arguments for pfi. the pfi -help does not list any options for me. Does anyone have a link to a list or is there some way to get the -help argument to output the list?
Thanks,

Solaris 10 command-line argument to /etc/init.d/apache

Does anyone know how to control the command-line argument sent to /etc/init.d/apache that ships with Solaris 10 11/06?
# svcs *\apache\*
shows Solaris is running Apache 1.3 as a legacy service with the FMRI lrc:/etc/rc3_d/S50apache.
According to Sun documenation ("How to Modify a Command-Line Argument for an inetd Controlled Service" <http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-1985/6mhm8o5ss?a=view>), one should be able to make desired changes using the inetadm command. The problem is,
# inetadm
doesn't show anything at all related to apache or httpd. I thought about changing the inittab file, but Sun's comments in the file pretty much say "hands off."
I'm trying to have Apache SSL enabled at boot time (i.e. argument startssl instead of start). As a temporary hack, I've edited apachectl so that the "start" argument is processed like "startssl."
Thanks!

According to Sun documenation ("How to Modify a Command-Line Argument for an inetd Controlled Service" /etc/rc3 services have nothing to do with inetd.
The script is running from the above file (/etc/rc3.d/S50apache).
That's normally apache 1.x. If you do 'svcs -a', you'll see disabled services as well, which will include the apache 2.x server.
<http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-1985/6mhm8o5ss?a=view>), one should be able to make desired changes using the inetadm command. The problem is,
Neither version of apache runs from inetd. Are you interested in apache 1.x or apache 2.x?

Obtaining command line arguments

Can someone point me at an example of how to obtain command
line arguments from inside my Flex application? I want to have my
Flex application perform different tasks when it is launched with
different command line arguments, for example:
myApp.exe 1
myApp.exe 2
myApp.exe 3
How is that done in a Flex app?

File name as command line option for multiple VM processes

"-Xloggc:/tmp/gc.log" is the option I'd like to set, but every process will log to that file and even if we don't experience any concurrency issues the data still isn't useful because I can't tell which process did what.
The island files are cleverly named to include their process number, can I do similar for command line options or will I be restricted to a single JVM?

Online help (as of LabVIEW 7.0?), Index, Command Line, User-defined arguments - It will show you the following:
You also can pass LabVIEW-defined or user-defined arguments when you launch LabVIEW from the command line. To pass user-defined arguments in the command line, enter two hyphens (--) surrounded by spaces before the set of user-defined arguments. LabVIEW does not use any arguments after the two hyphens to launch labview.exe. LabVIEW passes the arguments after the two hyphens to the block diagram of the VI you launch. Use the Application:Command Line Arguments property to read the user-defined command-line arguments passed when LabVIEW launches.
For example, to launch mycool.vi and pass user-defined arguments, use the following command:
c:\labview\la
bview.exe c:\coolapp\mycool.vi -- 1000 sine
On the block diagram of the mycool.vi, use the Application:Command Line Arguments property to read the 1000 and sine arguments you passed and handle the values.

How to pass a command line argument to a jsp file...

Hi guys,
I'm writing a jsp file in which I have some java codes. I want to pass some command line arguments to that jsp file. In other words, I have some files located somewhere on my C drive and I want to pass the path to these files to my jsp file. How can it be done? I have never done before.
Any suggestion will be very hepful...
Thanks....

I dont know if I truly understand your problem...
For instance, when you place the url of your jsp you can add, at the end some parameters. For example:
http://myserver/myapp/myjsp.jsp?MyParameter=C:\Temp\JavaTutorial.html
In your JSP, you can place this code on a scriplet to get the value:
String path = request.getParameter("MyParameter");
Hope it helps.

Possible to use command line argument in project file?

In my CI build process I would like to have a command line argument "customer" that should be used in the project file to include customer related files into the project like this:
<Content Include="..\customers\%(customer)\*">
<Link>%(RecursiveDir)%(FileName)%(Extension)</Link>
</Content>
Is that possible?

Read in file name + path using command line arguments

Hi guys,
I am trying to use command line arguments to read in the name of two files. The code below works as long as the files are on the class path.
public class cmdLineArguments {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          String xmlFile1 = args[0];
                String xmlFile2 = args[1];
          System.out.println ("\nXmlFile1: " + args[0] + "\nXmlFile2: " + args[1]);
}I would like to be able to read files that are not on the class path as well by entering their full path along with their names.
In other words, It works if I type:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\workspace\CmdLineArgs\src>java cmdLineArgs file1.xml file2.xmlbut not if I type:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\workspace\CmdLineArgs\src>java cmdLineArgs c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file1.xml c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file2.xmlWould anyone please explain how I can edit the code to make it work? I guess I could take them both as a String, modify them manually (add a \ to it etc) but is there an easier way to do it? Even a reference to a tutorial, article etc about this would be very much appreciated.
Also, any idea why a code would compile and run fine in Eclipse but would create an error from command line?
Thanks a lot.

You need to learn about cmd.exe which is used to process the command line. The arguments passed to any program is the command line split at white space so your command line arguments of
c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file1.xml c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file2.xmlis turned into an array of
"c:\Documents", "and", "Settings\user\desktop\file1.xml", "c:\Documents", "and", "Settings\user\desktop\file2.xml"In other words instead of 2 arguments you actually have 6.
To get round this the file names need to be quoted
java cmdLineArgs "c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file1.xml" "c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file2.xml"

Changing the override file via command line arguments

Is there a way to change name of the file Coherence uses to override coherence-config.xml via a command line argument? I'd like to specify different override filenames in different environments.

I get the message that:
2006-02-13 16:53:27.699 Tangosol Coherence 3.0.1/317 <D5> (thread=main, member=n/a): Optional configuration file "/home/noah/tools/tangosol-config/tangosol-coherence-override-dev.xml" is not specified
I specified the following as the startup:
java -Dtangosol.coherence.override=/home/noah/tools/tangosol-config/tangosol-coherence-override-dev.xml -Dtangosol.coherence.log.level=5 -classpath /home/ncohen/tools/tangosol-config:/home/noah/tools/tangosol/lib/coherence.jar com.tangosol.net.CacheFactory
Where the tangosol-config directory contains my override file tangosol-coherence-override-dev.xml
If I change the name of the override file solely in the cmd prompt, it doesn't find any of them. It just gives me the optional configuration file ..... is not specified. How does one go about fixing this? Thx.
