Hello guys,

I have been using fantom for about a year. It's just great.I have made some projects (web, database access) using Fantom.

I made a simple app that I want to distribute as a jar.I used JarDist but I get an error because my main method has arguments.

I checked JarDist code and obviously when main has arguments an exception is thrown.

Is there any way to use JarDist with arguments???

Thanks in advance, Panagiotis

Hi Pani83,

The simplest work around is to just get your args from sys::Env.arg - they will be available there.

I can take a look at beefing up JarDist task, in the meantime you can probably hack up your own build script to fix it pretty easily. The code is here.

Hi Brian,

I had made it using sys::Env.arg, I just asked if there is another way.

I will try to make my own build script.

Thanks for your quick reply!

Renamed from JarDist - main having params to JarDist - support for main(Str[]) params
