if i skip tests I get a jar but then when running it you get:

java -jar target/github-traffic-0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problem:
	Cannot invoke isNullOrEmpty() on the array type String[]

	at manifold.github.traffic.Main.main(Main.java:17)

whats the trick to get it to build?

[rsmckinney]

It should build with mvn clean compile install

What version of JDK are you compiling with? Are you compiling with IntelliJ or command line?

[maxandersen]

okey, so tried again with clean setup and I now can compile install and run...but it fails with wanting a starhistory.txt

okey if I force create the folder at /Users/manderse/github-traffic/jbangdev/jbang then it works. something must be missing a create parent dir .
