Maybe you should start reading the tutorial from the beginning:
"Tutorial: Writing Tasks
This document provides a step by step tutorial for writing tasks."
That�s a tutorial about writing tasks - not simple java apps.
The techniques are the same: code, compile, test ... But that java class is
not
startable. If you want to do start your task from the command line I suggest
providing
a main like
public static void main(String args[]) {
HelloWorld task = new HelloWorld();
// use task.setXXX() methods for settings values, maybe from args
array like
task.setMessage( args.length>0 ? args[0] : "Default Message" );
task.execute();
}
