Re: maven 2.0.7 assembly plugin
You can do a jar containing all dependencies with the following descriptor. However - the excludes doesn't work properly in the assembly plugin, so if you have dependencies that are signed, you'll have to fix them afterwards annoyingly. You can also pack jars into the /lib and use something like one-jar - this is quicker, but I found one-jar loads everthing into memory before running (which fell over for me because my project is big). assembly iduberjar/id formats formatjar/format /formats includeBaseDirectoryfalse/includeBaseDirectory dependencySets dependencySet outputDirectory/outputDirectory outputFileNameMapping/outputFileNameMapping unpacktrue/unpack scoperuntime/scope unpackOptions excludes exclude/META-INF/*.RSA/exclude exclude/META-INF/*.DSA/exclude exclude/META-INF/*.SF/exclude exclude/META-INF/*.rsa/exclude exclude/META-INF/*.dsa/exclude exclude/META-INF/*.sf/exclude /excludes /unpackOptions /dependencySet /dependencySets fileSets fileSet directorytarget/classes/directory outputDirectory/outputDirectory /fileSet /fileSets /assembly On Nov 14, 2007 2:04 AM, Steve Taylor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In theory, at the command line from the directory of the parent project, just type: mvn -DdescriptorId=jar-with-dependencies assembly:assembly and you should get a single jar with everything in it.

RE: maven 2.0.7 assembly plugin
I have used the assembly plugin, but not like this. I don't think such a JAR (i.e. a JAR of JARS) will work unless you are loading the classes up by your own JAR exploration mechanism. Class files must be locatable from the JARs root to appear on the classpath. Perhaps you need to consider unpacking the various JARS into a common target and repcaking that into a single JAR. This could be a trivial Maven project. Perhaps this isn't really a JAR application, and would be better as a ZIP?

There's such a thing in maven1 - please, take a look here: http://maven.apache.org/maven-1.x/plugins/uberjar/ Perhaps it may be ported as a layout in maven-assembly-plugin. But - I was using this with maven1 with project containing big jars (i.e. oracle jdbc driver) and it's very slow so I do not think it's a right way to go.
