Method Detail

scalaProvider

ScalaProvider scalaProvider()

Returns the ScalaProvider that this AppProvider will use.

id

ApplicationID id()

The ID of the application that will be created by 'newMain' or 'mainClass'.

loader

java.lang.ClassLoader loader()

The classloader used to load this application.

mainClass

@Deprecated
java.lang.Class<? extends AppMain> mainClass()

Deprecated.

Loads the class for the entry point for the application given by 'id'. This method will return the same class every invocation. That is, the ClassLoader is not recreated each call.

entryPoint

java.lang.Class<?> entryPoint()

Loads the class for the entry point for the application given by 'id'. This method will return the same class every invocation. That is, the ClassLoader is not recreated each call.

newMain

AppMain newMain()

Creates a new instance of the entry point of the application given by 'id'. It is NOT guaranteed that newMain().getClass() == mainClass(). The sbt launcher can wrap generic static main methods. In this case, there will be a wrapper class, and you must use the `entryPoint` method.

Throws:

java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError - if the configuration used for this Application does not represent a launched application.

mainClasspath

java.io.File[] mainClasspath()

The classpath from which the main class is loaded, excluding Scala jars.

components

ComponentProvider components()

Returns a mechanism you can use to install/find/resolve components. A component is just a related group of files.
