Mac - package maker command line arguments

Hi , I am trying with package maker command line to create a package. What option need to set in command line to avoid Admin/Password while installing package created by Package maker. The same thing we can do using GUI by checking option "Require Admin Auth.." in configuratoin TAB.
Your quick reply will be appreciated.

Command line arguments to Captive Runtime Air App

I am having problems passing command line arguments to my Captive Runtime Air App on Mac OS X. Argument handling occurs perfectly when running in ADL, via the InvokeEvent.INVOKE event. However, when running the native executable, it seems that no command line arguments are getting passed through.
How do I pass command line arguments into my Captive Runtime Air App?

Jay,
Your question isn't very clear, hence Joerg's well meaning but irrelevant advise.
Do you mean:
I've written a simple program in java which echos
it's command-line arguments to back to the console.
Here's my code:
package forums;
public class ArgsEchoer
public static void main(String[] args) {
for (String arg : args) {
System.out.println(arg);
But can't figure out how to compile and run the program.
I'm using winblows shista, and it's cr@p.
Please help me, Thanks in advance.So... where are you at? Have you installed the JDK (java development kit)? Which version? Is your path set? Is your classpath set?

Error message: "invalid command line argument" while lodaing itunes

I'm trying to load Itunes onto a computer that already has a version of itunes on it. I get a message that says "error: -1639 invalid command line argument" Does anyone know what this means? Does this mean I can't load itunes onto a computer that already has itunes on it?
Also, I was able to load itunes on my laptop, but My ipod Icon is not appearing anywhere, not in itunes, not in explorer, not in my computer. I am, however, able to transfer music automatically when I plug the Ipod into the laptop. I have created several playlists and they have transferred over to the ipod as playlists. Any ideas why I can transfer despite not being recognized anywhere on the computer?
Last thing is, I have plugged the Ipod into three different computers with itunes on them, and the ipod does not show up in the source list.
I'm somewhat perplexed by all of this. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated

hiya!
"error: -1639 invalid command line argument"
hmmm. folks typically only get that error if they are installing from removable media (such as a CD), although i have seen it happen if someone tries to install into the "recovery partition" of certain makes of PC.
if you download and save an installer to your C drive and run the install from there, do you still get the 1639?

Sending varargs via command line arguments to main()

When I put A B C D in the command line arguments textbox in my compiler, the output is as expected: A B C D. However, when I put *new String[]{A, B, C, D}*, the output is *new String[]{A, B, C, D}*, not A B C D as I had expected. My code is below. Any suggestions?
package varargs;
public class Varargs {
    static void printArray(Object...args){
        for (Object obj : args)
            System.out.print(obj + " ");
        System.out.println();
    public static void main(String...args) {
        printArray((Object[])args);
}

The argument(s) that is/are supplied to your main method will be rendered as literal String constants. It looks like you are attempting to use java code as one of your arguments with the expectation that the program will interpret this code. It won't. Your program will simply display whatever it is given even if what you offer as an argument happens to be a construct of the Java language.

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"

Executing another program with command line arguments

I am very new to Java, so bare with me.
I have written an encryption/decryption program in C (that accepts command line arguments of the key, mode (encrypt/decrypt), and file), and I have written a GUI for it in Java. It accepts the filename (and has a button which opens the "File/Open" dialog), key, and mode, and has a button to Start the process of the encryption. I'd like for that "Start" button to call my encryption program in C (eep.exe) with the command line arguments of the file, key, and mode. This is what I have written so far :
Start = new JButton("Start");
Start.setBounds(150, 180, 90, 25);
Start.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
Desktop.open(new File("C:\\eep.exe" + " " + filename + " " + mode + " " + key));
However, I get the error "Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method open(File) from the type Desktop" on the Desktop.open command.
What should I do? Is Desktop.Open the right way to go about this? If not, what is the right way to go about it?
Thanks in advance.

That has helped greatly, but I cannot pass command line arguments to it.
Using :
try {
    Desktop.getDesktop().open(new File("C:\\eep.exe"));
catch (Exception e) {
   System.out.println("Error executing.");
}I can execute eep.exe, but when I try to pass command line arguments to it, such as
Desktop.getDesktop().open(new File("C:\\eep.exe" + " " + filename));it fails, get caught and prints "Error Executing."
I have also tried loading the program, as well as some command line arguments into an array of strings :
String[] cmdArray = {"C:\\eep.exe", filename};
Desktop.getDesktop().open(new File(cmdArray));But it gives me the error "The constructor File(String[]) is undefined" on the
new File (cmdArray)part of the command.

ERROR: -1639 INVALID COMMAND LINE ARGUMENT

SOMEONE HELP... My kid is chomping at the bit !
Thanks.

Ok I'll do some more searching but I found something in the community forums.
APPSearch can not return this data into a property, so instead, for some unspeakable reason, returns a value of Null, follwed by another Null. This means that the property is created, and populated with two null characters. Bad news if the property also happens to be a PUBLIC property. All public properties are passed as part of the command line sent in a stream to the background installer process by the Execute Action. Since this stream now contains a double null value in a property, the stream is prematurely terminated. This creates an invalid command line, and thus the 1639 error.
This user solved it by using the MSi Cleanup installer util.
EDIT: A little more info...
This problem is almost impossible to detect through the MSI log files since our friends at Microsoft chose to limit the length of any line in the log. It is impossible to get a dump of the full command line that generates this error.
EDIT2:Note that error 1639 only ocurrs when the install package is run from removable media. When the package is run from local storage, the behavior is far more obtuse. The background install process, failing to receive a complete command line, is forced to run as if there had been no UI session, which in turn causes the APPSearch action to run again as if the install was running in silent mode. This causes re-evaluation of all properties a second time, destroying the feature selections made in the UI session, and also forcing the install to run under user credentials instead of elevated, even though AdminUser, ALLUSERS and Privleged properties are set. This is a very serious error that causes total failure of the installation.

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.

Neither version of apache runs from inetd. Are you interested in apache 1.x or apache 2.x?

Documenting command line arguments

I'm very new to javadoc, and I'm trying to put together a set of guidelines for our developers to follow. One thing I came accross was command line arguments. If a main function is expecting command line arguments, how would this be documented, should @param be used? I didn't see anything about this in the guidelines sun has posted. Any help is greatly appreciated.

This is my own personal opinion, so don't treat it as a "fact", but I don't think Javadoc is best suited for specifying command line arguments. You could do the following:
* Description of main() here...
* @param args First parameter = xxx, Second parameter = yyy;
public static void main(String[] args)
}In this way you can specify all command-line parameters that are required in order to make the appliction run.
BUT...
Javadoc is meant more to be a programmatic guide to how to allow Java classes to interoperate. Java classes (mostly) will not care at all what the command-line parameters to the main invocation are. That is information that is only really needed to be known by the application executor at runtime.
Therefore, for all my apps, I do the following to comment what types of parameters should be passed to the invocation of the application:
* My App comments...
* @param args Run application without any parameters to see list of all necessary command-line parameters.
public static void main(String[] args)
   if (args.length < 1)
      System.out.println("This application allows the following parameters:");
      System.out.println("   Param#1 = xxx, <description>");
      System.out.println("   Param#2 = yyy, <description>");
      System.exit(0);
}In this way, you do not clutter up the Javadoc APIs (used for classwise interaction) with command-line parameters, but the command-line parameters are still specified by "documentation" (running the application without any parameters).
If parameters are optional, instead of mandatory, you could do something similar...
* Documentation...
* @param args Run -h as first flag for list of all optional parameters.
public static void main(String[] args)
   if ((args.length > 0) && (args[0].equals("-h"))
      // Print out all possible parameters.
}Anyway, this system has held me in good stead for the last couple of years.

How to hide the command line arguments from solaris process

Hi All,
When I execute a JAR application from a java file using the Runtime.getRuntime, the command line arguments (user ID and Password details) which I passed for executing the application displayed on Solaris process (ps -ef).
Could anybody please help me, how can I hide either the process or the command line arguments from the Solaris process?
I cannot pass any asterix or any special character in place of password, because the executing application doesn't have any functionality to retreive the password which send as asterix characters.
Please help me
SumodeV

Thanks for all the response.
I have created a design and implement the functionality which executes the JAR application in Solaris environment without showing any details in the process details.
I have used the Java Reflection method, which invokes the JAR application. I am sharing the details here for all those who looking for it.
1, Inside the Customer application [Jar File is running for it], collect the necessary session details [Using System.get property method]
2, Create an independent Java file, which should be used to invoke the JAR application
3, Create the ProcessBuilder object and use a command - execute the Java file [a wrapper code] using normal Java command
4, Pass the necessary session details to the ProcessBuilder using the environment() function.
5. Collect the environment values in the independent Java file (Which was invoked by ProcessBuilder) and set details for its environment using System.setProperty.
6, Use reflection technique to invoke the JAR plugin [which you want to run]. You can use the standard Java functionality to read the MANIFEST file of JAR and load the main class using URLClassLoader.
7, Invoke the main method of the JAR file, which run the JAR application in Solaris window
This solution will make sure that the process cannot display any session details in the Solaris Environment.
Note: Use String[] array while create the command. Otherwise the JAR application cannot pop-up.
Regards
Sumode

Command line Argument Problem - '*'

Hi, Is there any problem in giving * as Command line argument.
My student was trying to write a calculator program but stuck :
Code Sample
public class test
public static void main(String[] args)
System.out.println(args[1]);
java test 2 + 2
No Problem
java test 2 * 2
gives Problem

It's not relevant to the programming language. The shell is what expands the *.
OTOH, I heard that MS-DOS filename expansion is spotty (that's been my experience actually) and that Java has a workaround built into it to make it make sense.
I'd encourage you to change the assignment (or however this is working out) to allow your student to submit the entire expression as a single argument:
java Calculator '2 * (3 + 2)'

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?

Hi pkursawe,
Try to use the Copy task, topy the custom files into the project, then add these files into the ItemGroup, check this blog post:
How To: Recursively Copy Files Using the <Copy> Task
The wildcard will help you to add related files into the project.

Prevent Startup Form from Loading using Command Line Arguments

Hi there
I'm developing a VB.NET windows forms application in VS2013.
The application will have 2 ways of being executed, one being by the user manually and the other being automated by the task scheduler.
When executed by the task scheduler, command line arguments will be used so that the application is aware that it is being run automatically and not by a user.
My problem is that I want the startup form to load when run by a user but I don't want it to load when it is run automatically, I just want to execute code.
Is it possible to prevent the startup form from loading by using the commandline arguments from the MyApplication_Startup event?
Cheers

Hi Aureuz,
>>Is it possible to prevent the startup form from loading by using the commandline arguments from the MyApplication_Startup event
It is impossible to accomplish it in the MyApplication_Startup event, we can use Form.Shown event:
#Form.Shown Event
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.form.shown(v=vs.110).aspx
If we start a form by using the commandline arguments, the count of CommandLineArgs will be above one, if so, use Me.Hide() method to hide this form.
Private Sub Form1_Shown(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Shown
Dim args As String() = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()
If args.Count > 1 Then
Me.Hide()
Else
Me.Show()
End If
End Sub
You can also uncheck "Enable application framework" on the project properties application tab and select your startup object to a module object:
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim args As String() = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()
If args.Count > 1 Then
'Run your background code
Else
Dim f As New Form1
f.ShowDialog()
End If
End Sub
End Module

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.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/Double.html
Give it a go and feel free to post back with a specific problem you are having, accurately described if you please :-)
