How to deploy JavaFX application writen in JavaScript unsing Nashorn

[Danno Ferrin]

The JJS command line tool delegates to jdk.nashorn.tools.Shell, with a lot of custom command line switches.  Some of these command line switches also do custom things, particularly the -fx flag.  The problem with using the Shell class as the main for javapackager its that currently we don’t support command line arguments not passed in by the user.  So your best bet is to write a main class that passes in {“apps_all.js", “-fx-“, “.”} to the static main method of Shell, note all the custom command line arguments the shell script passes in, and hanse the packager set those as jvmArgs.
