Methods
launch
VirtualMachine launch(Map<String,? extends Connector.Argument> arguments) throws IOException, IllegalConnectorArgumentsException, VMStartException
Launches an application and connects to its VM. Properties of the launch (possibly including options, main class, and arguments) are specified in arguments
. The argument map associates argument name strings to instances of Connector.Argument
. The default argument map for a connector can be obtained through Connector.defaultArguments()
. Argument map values can be changed, but map entries should not be added or deleted.
A target VM launched by a launching connector is not guaranteed to be stable until after the VMStartEvent
has been received.
Important note: If a target VM is launched through this funcctions, its output and error streams must be read as it executes. These streams are available through the Process
object returned by VirtualMachine.process()
. If the streams are not periodically read, the target VM will stop executing when the buffers for these streams are filled.
- Parameters:
-
arguments
- the argument map to be used in launching the VM. - Returns:
- the
VirtualMachine
mirror of the target VM. - Throws:
-
IOException
- when unable to launch. Specific exceptions are dependent on the Connector implementation in use. -
IllegalConnectorArgumentsException
- when one of the connector arguments is invalid. -
VMStartException
- when the VM was successfully launched, but terminated with an error before a connection could be established.
