Wrap LXStudio Project as Application on OSX

Export project as .jar

In eclipse: For each of LX, GLX, and LXStudio, in order: -Right-click LX project -> Maven -> Update Project -Build -> Clean -Right-click GLX project -> Maven -> Update Project -Build -> Clean -Right-click project -> Properties -> Java Build Path -> Source tab -> "GLX/src/main/resources" -> select "Excluded: **" and click Remove. -Right-click LXStudio project -> Maven -> Update Project -Build -> Clean

Select LXStudio project File -> Export... Java\Runnable JAR file For Library Handling choose "Extract required libraries into generated JAR" Finish

Test .jar from Terminal and approve microphone access

Open Terminal

java -XstartOnFirstThread -jar myLXStudioProject_2022-08-17a.jar

Approve microphone access when prompted by OSX! If previously denied you might be able to enable it from Settings>Security and Privacy>Microphone>Privacy tab> check Terminal. If Terminal is not in the list you'll need to reset microphone permissions for all applications and start over.

Wrap .jar as application

Add bash file to launch .jar

In the same folder as your .jar add a file lx.sh:

#!/bin/bash cd ~ java -XstartOnFirstThread -jar myLXStudioProject_2022-08-17a.jar

Confirm it's executable in Terminal:

chmod a+x lx.sh ./lx.sh

In Finder, right-click lx.sh. Change "Open with" to Terminal.

Add .app to call bash file

Open Script Editor, choose New Document

tell application "Terminal" activate do shell script "$HOME/lx.sh" end tell

File->Export: As Application None of the options checked

Settings->Users and Groups->(click user)->Login Items

• Add new -> browse for application

Justin note: there is likely a better way to do this, but was having issues getting the microphone permission when directly executing the application without going through Terminal.
