folder will be created in your user's home directory and CommandBox will be extracted into that location. If you delete this directory, it will be replaced the next time the CommandBox executable is run.-commandbox_home=E:\CommandBox
when you run the box binary.commandbox.properties
(case sensitive) in the same directory as the binary, and fill it with this line:commandbox.properties
file.Warning On Windows 10 and above, the first time you try to run via Windows File Explorer an exe that you've downloaded, Windows Defender Smartscreen will popup with a warning that "Windows protected your PC". You will need to choose the offered "More info" link and then the offered "Run anway" button, to proceed.
Hint When running from the Windows command line/terminal, you can make it so that you can runbox.exe
while you are in any folder (not just the one where you placed it), by simply adding the exe's location to the WindowsPATH
system environment variable. See http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000549.htm​

. To switch between versions, you will need to install the new version - either using the bleeding edge tap or the main repo. For example to switch to a (very) old version:commandbox.properties
file as mentioned above, even though the symlink is added in /usr/local/bin
, your box
binary file will be in the /opt/homebrew/Cellar/commandbox/<version>/libexec/bin/
directory where you should place your commandbox.properties
file. There will also be a box
binary in the /opt/homebrew/Cellar/commandbox/<version>/bin/
directory where you should place the jre
if you want CommandBox to use a version of Java that is different from your default version reported by java -version
./opt/homebrew/Cellar/commandbox/<current_version>/
folder. So before upgrading, take a copy of your /opt/homebrew/Cellar/commandbox/<current_version>/libexec/bin/commandbox.properties
file to drop back into /opt/homebrew/Cellar/commandbox/<new_version>/libexec/bin/
before running box
for the first time after upgrading.exit
.Hint You can place the binary in your/usr/local/bin
directory so it can be available system-wide via thebox
command in any terminal window.
Please note that if you are running Ubuntu 18.04 or greater, or Debian 8 (Jessie) or greater, it's necesarry to have thelibappindicator-dev
package in order to have the tray icon working correctly.
