I am not 100% sure I get the difference. With the 'classic' starter, we
would produce a single, fat, jar that contains everything.
What would be the proposal for the feature archive based jar? Do we ask
the users to download a launcher jar and then run a command similar to
$ java -jar launcher.jar --feature-archive=https://maven/repo/archive.zip?
Right that is the difference - you basically need two artifacts, the
launcher and the feature archive - whereas today both are combined into
a single archive.
I assume the option is there to also load a feature archive from the
local disk, so that the launcher can work with requiring any network
access as well.
Absolutely, all URLs are supported, that includes files
