Java - How to pass arguments through a shortcut
To pass arguments through a shortcut in Java, you can utilize command line arguments and modify the shortcut's properties. Here's how you can do it:
- Modify the main method of your Java program to accept command line arguments. For example:
javapublic class MyApp {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Your application code here
}
}
Build your Java program into a JAR file using a build tool like Maven or Gradle.
Create a shortcut for the JAR file by right-clicking on it and selecting "Create shortcut".
Right-click on the created shortcut and select "Properties".
In the "Target" field, append the desired command line arguments to the end of the existing target path. For example:
swift"C:\path\to\java.exe" -jar "C:\path\to\your.jar" arg1 arg2
Replace "C:\path\to\java.exe"
with the path to your Java executable, "C:\path\to\your.jar"
with the path to your JAR file, and arg1 arg2
with the desired command line arguments.
- Click "Apply" and then "OK" to save the changes.
Now, when you double-click on the shortcut, it will launch your Java program with the specified command line arguments. The program can access these arguments through the args
array in the main
method.
