public abstract class ToolBase
extends java.lang.Object

A base class for a GWT related command-line application. To use this:

1. Derive a class for this class.
2. In your constructor, call registerHandler(ArgHandler) repeatedly to register particular command line arguments and options.
3. Write a main that looks like this:

    public static void main(String[] args) {
     MyShell myShell = new MyShell();
     if (myShell.processArgs(args)) {
       // main program operation
     }
     System.exit(1);
    }
    

4. Create launch config whose main class is MyShell.
