How do I pass parameters to a jar file at the time of execution?

To pass arguments to the jar:

java -jar myjar.jar one two

You can access them in the main() method of "Main-Class" (mentioned in the manifest.mf file of a JAR).

String one = args[0];  
String two = args[1];  

The JAVA Documentation says:

java [ options ] -jar file.jar [ argument ... ]

and

... Non-option arguments after the class name or JAR file name are passed to the main function...

Maybe you have to put the arguments in single quotes.

Incase arguments have spaces in it, you can pass like shown below.

java -jar myjar.jar 'first argument' 'second argument'
