I've seen through the net that I should use the command java -jar, followed by the project name in order to RUN my eclipse project. Can someone please explain how does it work- where should the code which would unzip the project-be wrriten? somewhere it should be written to take the args the user write in the command line and analyze them. How does it all combine together?
Any explanation would be appriciated.
Thank you.
ok, I got the answer..
in order to run the project this way, I need to write a new project and get the arguments from the main. all functionality corresponding the task of "running from command line" would be in that main function.

I have a java selenium QA project where we use ant and testng via the powershell terminal. What I would like help with is creating a redirect if a tester enters a typo in the terminal.
If I am in the run directory and I simply type ant, it will run the default.xml file listed in the build.xml file which is what I expect.
If I enter an actual ant command with a typo though:
ant -Dtestdir= c:\dev\qa\src\tests -Dtestxml=blablabla
it will attempt to run every test.xml file in the test directory. This is especially problematic because most of the those test.xml files call java classes that contain #Factory and #Dataprovider(s) and they allocate everything at once which just causes everything to fail.
What I would like is a way to tell ant if the input is erroneous, then run the default.xml file(which I have configured to populate an html error page). I've been reviewing both testng and ant docs and I'm not finding a solution, so your guidance would be appreciated.
Other than this one issue, the system works very well.
After digging around a bit more and learning how to ask the question properly, I found 2 great examples here on SO.
1) Create an additional ant target that checks for the existence of the file the user has typed. And add it to the depends attribute of the main target , and also adding the if attribute.
Example
2) Use the Ant fail task and fail the build (with a message) if the file is not available. I prefer this one because the tester can get some feedback.
Example 2
Alright, so just a disclaimer I suspect this question will be a duplicate of another question however I'm not even sure what to search for.
I have never used Eclipse or Golang before and am attempting to get a basic hello world application to work.
I have installed the goclipse plugin, created a new go package and go command source file. From what I have read to run a project in Eclipse you right click the package, select Run as then set the run configurations. The problem occurs when I attempt to select the go package as none shows up and if I leave it blank it throws a 'Go package not found' exception.
Thank you for any help you can provide.
EDIT: Upon the answers advice I have decided to go with the basic command line, however a friend did also recommend LiteIDE. I will "assume" tmichels answer is correct in regards to getting Go to work within eclipse.
If you don't use the GOPATH environment variable and you don't put your project folder under $GOPATH/src the compiler won't find it. As I see it goclipse lets you skip the GOPATH entirely but in this case you have to put your code under the src directory that you can see in the Project Explorer. See the related section of the goclipe documentation.
Although I think you make your life harder by using a full-fetched IDE for go development. Just use the command line tools. And it has the added benefit that you will actually understand what's going on (IDEs hide this from you).
So for building you can use go build or go install. The latter will copy the binary to your $GOPATH/bin directory. For running test just call go test or go test path/to/package. There is a hidden gem in the go tool: when you are working with multiple packages in the same directory you can use go test ./... to test all of them at once. This also works with other go commands.
I developed a simple scala app that uses casbah to query the DB for the command line argument passed to it. For example
$ querydb.scala execution 10
it will run a casbah query to find 10 records matching execution in mongo. Now i have two questions.
1) How do i test this in my local. If i click execute in intellij it is just running the program, i am not able to pass command line arguments to my program.
2) How do i deploy it to run on my server, it is just going to used as console app in my ubuntu server, but im not sure how i should deploy this, which files i should put up on the server and how do i execute it in server, and stuff like that.
Any pointers would be useful for me.
or try to use sbt, IDEA has a plugin with sbt, the wiki of it has an explanation on how to use it.
I usually use sbt directly in Terminal instead of running in IDE.
1) First you need to find "Select Run/Debug Configuration" button at the top of your screen
Click on it and choose edit
Create new one, if you haven't got it yet.
Your program parameters should be written in "Program parameters" field
2) Compile your .scala files with scalac and you'll got .class files.
Then deploy it, as you usually do with java code. Hence you don't need to install scala on target machine - all you need is JDK.
Related to another question, we want to change the eclipse run command.
I found that eclipse can run executing the script:
/usr/qnx630/host/qnx6/x86/usr/bin/qde.sh
But the startup configuration is not written there. The only thing the script does is executing the file:
/usr/qnx630/host/qnx6/x86/usr/qde/eclipse/eclipse
This file is a binary which ends calling another one with all the startup parameters for Eclipse.
So my question is: where can I find and change those parameters?
Thank you for your time.
I would first look at the eclipse.ini file to check if your startup configuration is not better expressed there.
(that is one element for having a quicker eclipse)
In your case, it should be at:
/usr/qnx630/host/qnx6/x86/usr/qde/eclipse/eclipse.ini
If it is not there, you could create it. It would be detected by eclipse during launch.
I have been used to working with VS2005 and 2008 - using msbuild, etc, but I have inherited a set of projects that have to remain in vc6.0 for now. I don't like opening each project in the developer studio and building. I prefer to build form command line (I am automating the builds). Is this possible?
I have tried the nmake utility, but I still need to open up the projects and save/export the make file. This is tedious if the project changes - each time I have to save the make file. nmake seems to work, but it had a problem when I changed the location of the project in my directory tree (I checked out of svn into a new clean dir to try the build). It seemed to have hard coded paths in it, but I will have to check on that - it might have been a different problem.
Any alternatives out there?
Eventually I will migrate these to 2008, but for now that is not an option.
I'm recording the most important part of your link here - Microsoft has a bad habit of moving stuff around and leaving dead links. Not only is this the most important bit, but it gives enough information to do a search if/when they move it.
Building a Project from the Command Line
You can build a Visual C++ project from the command line without first exporting a makefile (MAKEFILE, or filename.mak) and using the NMAKE utility.
The basic command syntax is
msdev FileName [/MAKE "ProjectName – ConfigName | ALL"] [/REBUILD /CLEAN /NORECURSE /OUT LogFile /USEENV]
where FileName is the name of your project (.dsp) or workspace (.dsw) file.

thanks all
of course you can automate. I haven't used vc in years, but I think the compiler is called c8.exe or wow, I can't remember silly little tidbits like that anymore, but look in your vc\bin directory at all the exes and it will be obvious by name.
you can write a batch file worst case. But I also remember the UI having a "create makefile" function. So you do that once, and then just run make from the command line and voila. or maybe it's nmake. Again, been a long long time.
Microsoft provides a command line driver for building Visual Studio projects. In VC6 it's called "msdev" (do msdev /? for a list of options).
At some point (probably VS.NET/VS 2002) they started calling the command line build driver "devenv" for some reason. It has a somewhat different syntax, but for driving builds the options are the same or similar.
We use automated builds at my work place. Essentially just a batch file i fire off from the command line. Let me make sure i am allowed to post some sample code before i go ahead and post it. But yes, it IS possible to automate the build.
Sample Code:
:::::::: CompileSolution :::::::::::::::::::::::::
call X:\BuildTools\bin\BuildVbProj.bat
%COMPONENTNAME% %SOLUTIONDIR%
%PROJFILE% %BUILDOUTPUTFILE%
%PREBUILDFILE% if %ERRORLEVEL% NEQ 0
goto BuildErrors
goto Cleanup
EDIT: The BuildVbProj.bat file ultimately calls VB6.exe in the Program Files\MS Visual Studio\VB98\ folder. Try calling it with "VB6.exe /?" or "VB6.exe -?" and it will show you a list of options. You can basically automate your process using those options.
There should be a similar exe for VC in the VC98 folder as well.
Another option which is less labor intensive is
Pulldown Menu (BUILD)
Select (BATCHBUILD)
Push Button (REBUILDALL)
