Interface JavaShellToolBuilder

Methods

builder

static JavaShellToolBuilder builder()

Create a builder for launching the JDK jshell tool.

Returns:

a builder which can be used to configure and launch the jshell tool

in

JavaShellToolBuilder in(InputStream cmdIn,
                        InputStream userIn)

Set the input channels.

Implementation Requirements:

If this method is not called, the behavior should be equivalent to calling in(System.in, null).

Parameters:

cmdIn - source of command input

userIn - source of input for running user code, or null to extract user input from cmdIn

Returns:

the JavaShellToolBuilder instance

out

JavaShellToolBuilder out(PrintStream output)

Set the output channels. Same as out(output, output, output).

Implementation Requirements:

If neither out method is called, the behavior should be equivalent to calling out(System.out).

Parameters:

output - destination of command feedback, console interaction, and user code output

Returns:

the JavaShellToolBuilder instance

out

JavaShellToolBuilder out(PrintStream cmdOut,
                         PrintStream console,
                         PrintStream userOut)

Set the output channels.

Implementation Requirements:

If neither out method is called, the behavior should be equivalent to calling out(System.out, System.out, System.out).

Parameters:

cmdOut - destination of command feedback including error messages for users

console - destination of console interaction

userOut - destination of user code output. For example, user snippet System.out.println("Hello") when executed Hello goes to userOut.

Returns:

the JavaShellToolBuilder instance

err

JavaShellToolBuilder err(PrintStream error)

Set the error channels. Same as err(error, error).

Implementation Requirements:

If neither err method is called, the behavior should be equivalent to calling err(System.err).

Parameters:

error - destination of tool errors, and user code errors

Returns:

the JavaShellToolBuilder instance

err

JavaShellToolBuilder err(PrintStream cmdErr,
                         PrintStream userErr)

Set the error channels.

Implementation Requirements:

If neither err method is called, the behavior should be equivalent to calling err(System.err, System.err, System.err).

Parameters:

cmdErr - destination of tool start-up and fatal errors

userErr - destination of user code error output. For example, user snippet System.err.println("Oops") when executed Oops goes to userErr.

Returns:

the JavaShellToolBuilder instance

persistence

JavaShellToolBuilder persistence(Preferences prefs)

Set the storage mechanism for persistent information which includes input history and retained settings.

Implementation Requirements:

If neither persistence method is called, the behavior should be to use the tool's standard persistence mechanism.

Parameters:

prefs - an instance of Preferences that is used to retrieve and store persistent information

Returns:

the JavaShellToolBuilder instance

persistence

JavaShellToolBuilder persistence(Map<String,​String> prefsMap)

Set the storage mechanism for persistent information which includes input history and retained settings.

Implementation Requirements:

If neither persistence method is called, the behavior should be to use the tool's standard persistence mechanism.

Parameters:

prefsMap - an instance of Map that is used to retrieve and store persistent information

Returns:

the JavaShellToolBuilder instance

env

JavaShellToolBuilder env(Map<String,​String> vars)

Set the source for environment variables.

Implementation Requirements:

If this method is not called, the behavior should be equivalent to calling env(System.getenv()).

Parameters:

vars - the Map of environment variable names to values

Returns:

the JavaShellToolBuilder instance

locale

JavaShellToolBuilder locale(Locale locale)

Set the locale.

Implementation Requirements:

If this method is not called, the behavior should be equivalent to calling locale(Locale.getDefault()).

Parameters:

locale - the locale

Returns:

the JavaShellToolBuilder instance

promptCapture

JavaShellToolBuilder promptCapture(boolean capture)

Set to enable a command capturing prompt override.

Implementation Requirements:

If this method is not called, the behavior should be equivalent to calling promptCapture(false).

Parameters:

capture - if true, basic prompt is the ENQ character and continuation prompt is the ACK character. If false, prompts are as set with set-up or user /set commands.

Returns:

the JavaShellToolBuilder instance

run

void run(String... arguments)
  throws Exception

Run an instance of the Java shell tool as configured by the other methods in this interface. This call is not destructive, more than one call of this method may be made from a configured builder. The exit code from the Java shell tool is ignored.

Parameters:

arguments - the command-line arguments (including options), if any

Throws:

Exception - an unexpected fatal exception

start

default int start(String... arguments)
           throws Exception

Run an instance of the Java shell tool as configured by the other methods in this interface. This call is not destructive, more than one call of this method may be made from a configured builder.

Implementation Requirements:

The default implementation always returns zero. Implementations of this interface should override this method, returning the exit status.

Parameters:

arguments - the command-line arguments (including options), if any

Returns:

the exit status with which the tool explicitly exited (if any), otherwise 0 for success or 1 for failure

Throws:

Exception - an unexpected fatal exception
