Custom start-script for MacOS

[ywuliu]

I am aware that Installation on Mac is not fully implement yet.
I have a little solution, I tried it in mac for http and local file, both works
it only support one instance at a time in this case

#!/bin/bash

##NEED CHANGED
jnlpFile=XXX
openWebStartRoot="/Applications/OpenWebStart"
##NEED CHANGED DONE

##start.sh location
scriptsDir="$( cd "$( dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" )" >/dev/null 2>&1 && pwd )"

##logFile
logFile="${scriptsDir}/log.txt"

echo "start at `date`" > "$logFile"
echo "JNLP FILE is $jnlpFile" >> "$logFile"

tempJnlpFile="`echo ${jnlpFile}`"

STARTHTTP="${jnlpFile%%:*}"
echo "start with $STARTHTTP" >> "$logFile"

if [[ $STARTHTTP = "http" ]] || [[ $STARTHTTP = "https" ]]
then
 
  ff="${jnlpFile##*/}"
  echo "web case, file name is: $ff ">> "$logFile"
  tempJnlpFile="$scriptsDir/$ff"
  curl $jnlpFile > "$tempJnlpFile"
fi

echo "TEMP JNLP FILE $tempJnlpFile" >> "$logFile"

cd "$openWebStartRoot"
open -a "OpenWebStart javaws" "$tempJnlpFile"

ret=$?

echo "return from OpenWebStart javaws is: $ret"

Actually, it seems that when we use:

open -a "OpenWebStart javaws" "$tempJnlpFile"

it will call: PhaseTwoWebStartLauncher everything works.
If we use:

"/Applications/OpenWebStart/OpenWebStart javaws.app/Contents/MacOS/JavaApplicationStub" "launch.jnlp"

It will:
[MESSAGE_ALL][Thu Dec 19 16:44:27 EST 2019] Starting OpenWebStart MacLauncher 1.1.1
Then, it will fail.

This is why I used a lot of time to developer start.sh

My Mac's Current Java Version is: java 11

[ywuliu]

openWebStartRoot="/Applications/OpenWebStart"
cd "$openWebStartRoot"
can be removed

Will be fixed in OWS 1.2.
