Redeployment with a launcher extending io.vertx.core.Launcher

[cescoffier]

So far, it does not work...

When using a launcher class extending Launcher, we forward the args to the Launcher. However, as it's not the Vert.x Launcher we don't build the command line.

@cescoffier - not able to understand, you mean to say the new Launcher().dispatch(args) kind of thing will not pass the args ?

[cescoffier]

When someone uses a launcher extending the io.vertx.core.Launcher, it expects the regular Launcher parameter (run verticle....). Right now, we don't pass any parameter, and we fail with an obscure error (ClassNotFound redeploy-termination-period=1000).

[cescoffier]

To reproduce it, just create a project with a custom launcher extending io.vertx.core.Launcher with the following main:

public class MyLauncher extends Launcher {
  public static void main String[]) {
      new MyLauncher().dispatch(args);
  }
}

With this launcher we neither, run / start nor manage the redeployment.
