Sorry for the duplicate post. I am new to Maven and need some help. This
what I currently have:
1.
my project's src/main/resources contains two packages:
the default package contains two files jndi.properties and log4j.properties
another package named company.it.app.i18n contains one file called
MessageResourceBundle.properties
2.
my pom includes:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.4</version>
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
<mainClass>company.it.app.MyApp</mainClass>
</manifest>
<manifestEntries>
<Class-Path>config/</Class-Path>
</manifestEntries>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
3.
my class references the resource bundle as follows:
private static final String BUNDLE_NAME =
"company.it.app.i18n.MessageResourceBundle";
4.
inside the generated executable jar file app-1.0.jar contains:
(i)
in the manifest the following class path and main class:
Class-Path: config/ log4j-1.2.7.jar (and other dependent jars)
Main-Class: company.it.app.MyApp
(ii)
config/jndi.properties
config/log4j.properties
(iii)
company\it\app\i18n\MessageResourceBundle.properties
my IDE results is successful:
clean and build works and the JUnit tests run successfully
then I do several manual steps
copy app-1.0.jar to a my destination folder named testapp
remove jndi.properties and log4j.properties from app-1.0.jar and copy to a
folder named config in folder testapp
copy log4j-1.2.7.jar (and other dependent jars) to the folder testapp
my command line result is successful:
java -jar app-1.0.jar
I'd like to make some changes to achieve the following:
because I'd like to automate my manual steps, I'd like to use Maven to
automate the creation of a zip file containing:
app-1.0.jar
lib/log4j-1.2.7.jar (and other dependent jars)
config/jndi.properties
config/log4j.properties
I've been trying and I don't know how to copy the resources to the config
folder without breaking the JUnit tests. Is it possible, if so how? How
would I create the zip with the structure?
Thanks in advance.
