The < symbol is something understood and interpreted by the command line. You can't use that in Eclipse.

in your main Method, you can get the parameters via the String array the main method has.

public static void main(String [] args){
    for(int i = 0; i <args.length; i++)
        System.out.println(args[i]);
}
