Description Jesse Glick 2002-11-28 14:32:07 UTC

I.e. some way to run in command-line mode with a
scripting interpreter etc.

#19443 fix broke NonGuiMain since it can no longer
use execution, etc.

#29124 would be the preferred solution. Or as a
shorter-term fix, make NbTM.register take
precedence over META-INF services (see NbTM.Lkp impl).

Comment 1 Jaroslav Tulach 2005-06-04 06:46:34 UTC

I am not sure this is still relevant. The ide can be started in nongui mode. 
This is used by unit tests in non-gui mode in core and core/windows. The trick 
is to pass --nogui argument on command line.

Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2005-06-06 19:44:06 UTC

I don't know if it is still relevant either - probably not - though WONTFIX
would be more appropriate since AFAIK NonGuiMain did things besides just --nogui
(had a scripting interpreter built in).
