java.lang.RuntimeException: Missing arguments #6

Closed kayvax closed 9 years ago

kayvax commented 9 years ago

Hi, I have tried to use mcpdf as drop-in replacement for pdftk. It fails me whenever I tried to run it. I suspected that it did not like oracle-jdk-bin so I tested with icedtea-bin but no avail. I have even tried to build it mysefl and even though build was successful I have the same issues.

Example: $ mcpdf -h java.lang.RuntimeException: Missing arguments. See README for more information.

$ java -jar mcpdf-0.2.2-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar java.lang.RuntimeException: Missing arguments. See README for more information.

I am running funtoo linux, if there would be any more information needed I will try to provide it. best regards

There is no option "-h" or "usage text" implemented yet, so it points you to the README where you can find all currently supported commands.

Note that although the goal of McPdf is a drop-in replacement for PDFtk, we're not quite there. Essentially, only form-filling is implemented yet (see README), with the cat operation upcoming as soon as somebody takes care of #5.

Feel free to propose/implement other commands that you need.

Also, patches for a better "usage"/"-h" message are welcome.
