Run/Debug Configuration: Kotlin

Program arguments

Type a list of arguments to be passed to the program in the format you would use on the command line. Use the same rules as for specifying the VM options.

Working directory

Specify the working directory to be used for running the application. This directory is the starting point for all relative input and output paths. By default, the field contains the directory where the project file resides. To specify another directory, click and select the directory.

Expand the list to view available path variables that you can use as a path to your working directory.

Environment variables

Create environment variables and specify their values.

Redirect input from

Specify a file to read the input from. Relative paths are prepended with the Working directory path.

You can use macros and path variables in this field.

Use classpath of module

Select the module whose classpath should be used to run the application.

Shorten command line

Select a method that will be used to shorten the command line if the classpath gets too long, or you have many VM arguments that exceed your OS command line length limitation:

• none: IntelliJ IDEA will not shorten a long classpath. If the command line exceeds the OS limitation, IntelliJ IDEA will be unable to run your application and will display a message suggesting that you specify the shortening method.

• JAR manifest: IntelliJ IDEA will pass a long classpath via a temporary classpath.jar. The original classpath is defined in the manifest file as a class-path attribute in classpath.jar. You will be able to preview the full command line if it was shortened using this method, not just the classpath of the temporary classpath.jar.

• classpath file: IntelliJ IDEA will write a long classpath into a text file.

JRE

By default, the newest JDK from the module dependencies is used to run the application. If you want to specify an alternative JDK or JRE here, select it from the list.
