When running a program via Eclipse is it possible to provide command like arguments to be stored in the String[] args as you can on the command line?

Just specify those arguments in the Run configuration (Arguments tab) menu of your project.

Yes.

If you click on the arrow next to the "Run" button, you can open the Run Configurations menu. You can specify both Program Arguments (which are passed into the args[] parameter to your main method) as well as VM Arguments.

Yes. Click on Run - Run configurations... Then select your run configuration, select the Arguments tab, and enter arguments in the Arguments text area.

Yes. The easiest way is to right-click on the class you want to run and select

Run As->Run Configurations

There is a tab to add arguments.
