Allow up/down arrows to navigate command history

[dimas]

In the CLI where I can query server with:

ns myMap
m.size

etc - it is very frustrating that you cannot use standard readline-like capabilities (sorry, not sure how this thing is called in Java world) like using UP and DOWN arrows to navigate through the command history to let you quickly repeat last command.

Would a solution requiring a dependency on the jline library be acceptable?

@dimas @mark-addy You can try to use rlwap utility http://utopia.knoware.nl/~hlub/uck/rlwrap/#rlwrap

I modified my clienConsole.sh with rlwrap

rlwrap java -server -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -cp ../lib/hazelcast-all-3.4.2.jar com.hazelcast.client.console.ClientConsoleApp

Give it a spin!

ConsoleApp and ClientConsoleApp are just for demo purposes.

@mark-addy you can fork ConsoleApp and ClientConsoleApp and add jline integration.
We will add them to hazelcast-code-samples project.
Thank you
