System Properties

SALSA programs can be executed with a set of system properties:

-Dport=<port number>: To specify the port number that the automatically started theater will listen to. Otherwise, a random port number is used.

-Didentifier=<id>: To specify the relative locator of the bootstrapping actor's UAL.

-Duan = <uan>: To specify the UAN of the bootstrapping actor.

-Dual= <ual>: To specify the UAL of the bootstrapping actor.

-Dnogc: The local garbage collector will not be triggered

-Dgcverbose: To show the behavior of local GC

-Dnodie: Making a dynamically created theater alive

Here comes the example:

java -Dport = 5050 -Didentifier = actor/hello HelloWorld

A theater is started at the current host (e.g. europa.wcl.cs.rpi.edu). The dynamically created theater listens on port , and the HelloWorld actor has the UAL:

rmsp://europa.wcl.cs.rpi.edu:5050/actor/hello
