James Smith commented on OWB-1267: ---------------------------------- Hey [~romain.manni-bucau], thanks for the quick response. Also, I apologize for my late response. I have tried the shaded approach, but I'm very new to it, so I'm not sure if I am doing it correctly. I have used the example that you provided, but an SPI resource seems to not be included into the Uber JAR. I am provided with the below exception: {code:java} Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError ... Caused by: javax.el.ELException: Provider com.sun.el.ExpressionFactoryImpl not found ... Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.el.ExpressionFactoryImpl ...{code} Can you offer advice on what I may be missing, or provide a bare-bones example of OWB used with the *Exec Maven Plugin*? Appreciate your time.
