Normally I would agree with you... except that he's using Assembly
plugin to build a jar-with-dependencies, which means the manifest.mf
file ends up looking like:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Archiver-Version: Plexus Archiver
Created-By: 1.5.0_06-b05 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
even if you configure the mainClass in m-jar-p as documented on the
webpage you linked.
So... you actually need to add the archive configuration into the
assembly plugin, as follows:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<configuration>
<descriptorRefs>
<descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
</descriptorRefs>
<archive>
<manifest>
<mainClass>com.agamura.thermota.Thermota</mainClass>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
I've tested and this works.

I took a look at your zip file... Here's my feedback:
1. Put your i18n language files in:
thermota-cli\src\main\resources\com\agamura\thermota
Thermota.properties
Thermota_de.properties
Thermota_fr_CA.properties
etc
After adding these files, I was successfully able to test with multiple Locales
ie:
java com.agamura.thermota.Thermota
java -Duser.language=de com.agamura.thermota.Thermota java -Duser.language=fr
-Duser.country=CA com.agamura.thermota.Thermota
2. In your properties file, you have comman.Exit which should be command.Exit.
3. I created a jar-with-dependencies in thermota-cli by adding the following to
that pom:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<configuration>
<descriptorRefs>
<descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
</descriptorRefs>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
This bundles all of your class files and those of your dependencies inside one
larger Jar that is more or less "ready to run". However, at this moment, I did
not configure Maven to correctly insert the MainClass attribute inside the
Manifest.MF file, and so you cannot run it directly by using java -jar ... So I
just unzipped the Jar, and ran java directly from the command line.
I don't use Assembly much so I'm not positive how to configure it to generate
this Manifest file, but I assume this is possible.
