How do I do this: ? If we could pass ad-hoc command-line args to javaws, then javaws apps could be more like

Answer 1

There is nothing to confuse. The very straight answer which I tested and it is working perrfect.

To send the command line argument to any JNLP is very simple.

command prompt > javaws -open space arg1 space arg2 ... space arg n JNLP url

Ex:

c:\>javaws -open arg1 arg2 arg3 c:\myjnlp.jnlp

But remember one thing, We can get the -open also as args[0] in main method, so just avoid args[0]. Also it is not possible to avoid -open with direct argument prepixed with -.
