Here's a Bash script for Linux. (Solaris can use /bin/sh, I think.)

#! /bin/bash
# launchInConsole
# echo "Command: $*" | xmessage -file -
if [ "X$*" = "X" ]; then
  xterm 
else
  echo "#!/bin/bash" >/tmp/crap.sh
  echo "$*" >>/tmp/crap.sh
  echo "sleep 60" >>/tmp/crap.sh
  chmod +x /tmp/crap.sh
  xterm -e /tmp/crap.sh 
fi

These lines are in my /home/joi/.jbuilder4/tools.conf file.

Launch in Console
/home/joi/bin/launchInConsole
($JDKPath)java -classpath ($Classpath) ($FileClass) ($Prompt)


Note the extra blank line at the end of the definition!


For Windows NT 4, here is a tested translation of the above:

@echo off
rem This is file launch.bat
if "%1"=="" goto nocommand

echo cd %1 >c:\jblaunch.bat
echo %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 >>c:\jblaunch.bat
echo echo Done.  Press enter to close this window. >>c:\jblaunch.bat
echo pause >>c:\jblaunch.bat
echo exit >>c:\jblaunch.bat
start "Launch" /D%1 /HIGH /MAX /WAIT c:\jblaunch.bat
echo I think I started it:  c:\jblaunch.bat
goto end

:nocommand
echo Hey!  This needs the following lines appended to your tools.config file. 
echo Launch
echo C:\\WINNT\\Profiles\\joi\\launch.bat
echo ($ProjectDir) ($JDKPath)java -classpath "($Classpath)" ($FileClass) ($Prompt)
echo (blank line here)

:end


The tools.config entry for this version is:

Launch
C:\\WINNT\\Profiles\\joi\\launch.bat
($ProjectDir)  ($JDKPath)java  -classpath  "($Classpath)"  ($FileClass)   ($Prompt)
