Hi,

I'm trying to create an executable jar from a swing application using maven and its maven-assembly-plugin. It builds ok, I saw in the jar it packs the dependent jars, but it contains non of my own programmed classes, resulting in a classnotfound exception when double clicking on the jar.

Can anyone help me out? Is this the easiest way for creating an excecutable for a swing application or are there better ways?

the configuration I used is:

<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<descriptorRefs>
<descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
<descriptorRef>src</descriptorRef>
</descriptorRefs>
<archive>
<manifest>
<mainClass>be.....presentation.MyApp</mainClass>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>attach-assembly-to-package</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>attached</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>

This plugin is in the parent class containing the modules. It has 6 modules, from which the presentation module contains the main class. The other modules are dependencies of the presentation module.
