== Why is this an issue? "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet," but ``++main++`` by any other name would not. Just because a method has the name "main", that doesn't make it the entry point to an application. It must also have the correct signature. Specifically, it must be ``++public static void++`` and accept a single ``++String []++`` as an argument. === Noncompliant code example [source,java] ---- public void main(String arg) { // Noncompliant // ... } ---- === Compliant solution [source,java] ---- public static void main(String [] args) { // ... } ---- ifdef::env-github,rspecator-view[] ''' == Implementation Specification (visible only on this page) include::message.adoc[] ''' == Comments And Links (visible only on this page) include::comments-and-links.adoc[] endif::env-github,rspecator-view[]
