Java – can I restart my application using main()?

I'm working on a way to restart my java application by clicking a button on the GUI I searched the Internet and encountered main (new string [0]) I need to know if this is an effective way to restart my application Someone can suggest. Thank you

private void bnNewsaleActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {

    main( new String[0]);
    }

Would this be better?

private void bnNewsaleActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
    classname.this.dispose();
    main( new String[0]);
    }

Solution

It uses an empty string array to call the static main method See if this is clearer:

String[] args = new String[0]; // Or String[] args = {};
main(args);

Admittedly, it is not common to call the main method from a non - main method... This does not really "restart" the application It will call it from your existing handler, which can have dislike consequences. I don't recommend it

If you can find a way to start a completely clean process, it will be a more reliable "restart"
