An application's public static main(String[]) method calls this method to make its main arguments available for lookup with the prefix main.

The map provides two kinds of access: First by index, starting at "0", "1" and so on. For example, the command line --file path/file.txt -x 2 can be accessed from a configuration file with:

  • "main:0" = "--file"
  • "main:1" = "path/file.txt"
  • "main:2" = "-x"
  • "main:3" = "2"

Second using the argument at position n as the key to access the value at n+1.

  • "main:--file" = "path/file.txt"
  • "main:-x" = "2"
Params:
  • args – An application's public static main(String[]) arguments.
