Method Detail

main

public static void main(String[] args)

The main method for the ServiceStarter application. The args argument is passed directly to ConfigurationProvider.getInstance() in order to obtain a Configuration object. This configuration object is then queried for the com.sun.jini.start.serviceDescriptors entry, which is assumed to be a ServiceDescriptor[]. The create() method is then called on each of the array elements.

Parameters:

args - String[] passed to ConfigurationProvider.getInstance() in order to obtain a Configuration object.
