Re: Using command line arguments for a bundle java app?



As others have said, you probably can't do it directly with the bundled app. I also recently had this need and I ended up creating a shell script to run it using the "java" command. By specifying the dock name using "-Xdock:name=Parsnips", it appears to run pretty much like the bundled version. The only visible difference is that the dock icon is the generic one rather than my icon. Undoubtedly there are other differences I haven't run in to.

How do I pass arguments to my bundled application using the command line? For example, I have an application bundle called "MyApp.app". I wish to pass the -foo argument to it when I open it using the command line. I've tried "open MyApp.app -foo" and other combinations but the arguments are ignored. Thanks for any help.
