                         String properties)
```
    Overridden so that McIDAS-V doesn't have to create an entire new IdvWindow if VMManager.findViewManager(ViewDescriptor) can't find an appropriate ViewManager for viewDescriptor.
    Not doing the above causes McIDAS-V to get stuck in a window creation loop.

  - initDone
```
public void initDone()
```
    Called after the IDV has finished setting everything up after starting. McIDAS-V is currently only using this method to determine if the last "exit" was clean--whether or not SESSION_FILE was removed before the McIDAS-V process terminated. Called after the IDV has finished setting everything up. McIDAS-V uses this method to handle:
    - Clearing out the automatic display creation arguments.
    - Presence of certain properties on the commandline.
    - Detection and handling of a crashed McIDAS-V session (searching for SESSION_FILE.

  - isUnixLike
```
public static boolean isUnixLike()
```
    Queries the os.name system property and if the result does not start with "Windows", the platform is assumed to be "unix-like".
    Given the McIDAS-V supported platforms (Windows, "Unix", and OS X), the above logic is safe.
    
    Returns:
    true if we're not running on Windows, false otherwise.
    
    Throws:
    
    RuntimeException - if there is no property associated with os.name.

```
    If McIDAS-V is running on Windows, this method will return a String that looks like "C:" or "D:", etc.
    If McIDAS-V is not running on Windows, this method will return an empty String.
    
    Returns:
    Either the "drive letter" of the java.home property or an empty String if McIDAS-V isn't running on Windows.
    
    Throws:
    
    RuntimeException - if there is no property associated with java.home.
  - createSessionFile
```

```
    Attempts to create a "session" file. This method will create a "userpath" if it does not already exist.

    path - Path of the session file that should get created. null values are not allowed, and sufficient priviledges are assumed.
    
    Throws:
    
    AssertionError - if McIDAS-V couldn't write to path.
    See Also:
    SESSION_FILE, hadCleanExit(String), removeSessionFile(String)
  - extractDate
```
private static Date extractDate(String path)
```
    Attempts to extract a timestamp from path. path is expected to only contain a single line consisting of a Long integer.
    
    Parameters:
    path - Path to the file of interest.
    
    Returns:
    Either a Date of the timestamp contained in path or null if the extraction failed.
  - removeSessionFile
```
private static void removeSessionFile(String path)
```
    Attempts to remove the file accessible via path.
    
    Parameters:
    path - Path of the file that'll get removed. This should be non-null and point to an existing and writable filename (not a directory).
    
    Throws:
    
    AssertionError - if the file at path could not be removed.
    See Also:
    SESSION_FILE, createSessionFile(String), hadCleanExit(String)
  - hadCleanExit
```
private static boolean hadCleanExit(String path)
```
    Tries to determine whether or not the last McIDAS-V session ended "cleanly". Currently a simple check for a "session" file that is created upon starting and removed upon ending.
    
    Parameters:
    path - Path to the session file to check. Can't be null.
    
    Returns:
    Either true if the file pointed at by path does NOT exist, false if it does exist.
    See Also:
    SESSION_FILE, createSessionFile(String), removeSessionFile(String)
  - getSessionFilePath
```
public static String getSessionFilePath()
```
    Returns the (current) path to the session file. Note that the location of the file may change arbitrarily.

    SESSION_FILE
  - applyArgs
```
private static void applyArgs(String[] args)
```
    Useful for providing the startup manager with values other than the defaults... Note that this method attempts to update the value of SESSION_FILE.
    
    Parameters:
    args - Likely the argument array coming from the main method.
  - getControlDescriptors
```
public List getControlDescriptors(boolean includeTemplates)
```
    This returns the set of ControlDescriptors that can be shown. The ordering of this list determines the "default" controls shown in the Field Selector, so we override here for control over the ordering.
    
    Overrides:
    
    getControlDescriptors in class IntegratedDataViewer
    
    Parameters:
    includeTemplates - If true then include the display templates
    
    Returns:
    re-ordered List of shown control descriptors
  - main
```

    args - Command line arguments
    
    Throws:
    
    Exception - When something untoward happens
  - exit
```
protected void exit(int exitCode)
```
    Attempts a clean shutdown of McIDAS-V. Currently this entails suppressing any error dialogs, explicitly killing the addeEntries, and removing SESSION_FILE.
    
    Overrides:
    
    exit in class IntegratedDataViewer
    
    Parameters:
    exitCode - System exit code to use.
    See Also:
