It's quite simple:

In your program, the main method has to be of this kind:

public static void main(String[] args) { ... }

In Eclipse, you can export this as a runnable jar. Now, open the sendto menu via

shell:sendto

in your explorer window. In there, put a shortcut. The shortcut you are looking for is

java -jar C:\path\to\jar\main.jar

Be aware that you have to be able to run your application for that.

When you do that, the sendto-filename will appear in the args parameters in your program.
