Thank you too for the quick response. Trust me, I've RTFMd for the last 4 days on this. The documentation is great if you already know what you want to do. If you don't then you spend 4 days digging, pulled along with the feeling that it's as simple as the documentation and experts imply.
I got it to work. For the list archives, here's what you do: 1. Use the assembly plugin 2. Create your own descriptor file 3. Copy everything manually. Something I'd hoped wouldn't be necessary, a self-running jar is one of those things I had assumed the toolchain would support easily. Here's my POM. Below that is the assembly file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd";> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>edu.vt.iddl.mobile</groupId> <artifactId>Desktop</artifactId> <packaging>jar</packaging> <version>200801-SNAPSHOT</version> <name>Desktop</name> <url>http://maven.apache.org</url> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>edu.vt.iddl.groovy</groupId> <artifactId>GroovyBridge</artifactId> <version>200801-SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.codehaus.groovy</groupId> <artifactId>groovy-all</artifactId> <version>1.1-beta-3</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>junit</groupId> <artifactId>junit</artifactId> <version>3.8.1</version> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>swing</groupId> <artifactId>appframework</artifactId> <version>1.0.3</version> <scope>compile</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>swing</groupId> <artifactId>swing-worker</artifactId> <version>1.1</version> <scope>compile</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>net.java.dev.swing-layout</groupId> <artifactId>swing-layout</artifactId> <version>1.0.2</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>commons-dbcp</groupId> <artifactId>commons-dbcp</artifactId> <version>1.2.2</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>log4j</groupId> <artifactId>log4j</artifactId> <version>1.2.14</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring</artifactId> <version>2.5</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-test</artifactId> <version>2.5</version> </dependency> </dependencies> <profiles> <profile> <id>netbeans-public</id> <activation> <property> <name>netbeans.execution</name> <value>true</value> </property> </activation> <build> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <archive> <manifest> <addClasspath>true</addClasspath> <classpathPrefix>lib</classpathPrefix> <mainClass>edu.vt.iddl.mobileadmin.MobileAdminApp</mainClass> </manifest> </archive> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <id>nb</id> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>directory</goal> </goals> <configuration> <descriptor>${basedir}/src/main/assemblies/netbeans-run.xml</descriptor> <finalName>executable</finalName> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> </plugins> </build> </profile> </profiles> <build> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <source>1.5</source> <target>1.5</target> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <archive> <manifest> <mainClass>edu.vt.iddl.mobileadmin.MobileAdminApp</mainClass> <packageName>edu.vt.iddl.mobileadmin</packageName> <addClasspath>true</addClasspath> </manifest> <manifestEntries> <mode>development</mode> <url>${pom.url}</url> </manifestEntries> </archive> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.2-beta-2</version> <configuration> <descriptors> <descriptor>${basedir}/src/main/assemblies/dist.xml</descriptor> </descriptors> <archive> <manifest> <mainClass>edu.vt.iddl.mobileadmin.MobileAdminApp</mainClass> <packageName>edu.vt.iddl.mobileadmin</packageName> <addClasspath>true</addClasspath> </manifest> </archive> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build> </project> The assembly file: src/main/assemblies/dist.xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- Document : dist.xml Created on : April 14, 2008, 1:27 PM Author : lally Description: Sets up the maven assembly plugin to build a proper jar. --> <assembly> <id>dist</id> <includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory> <formats> <format>jar</format> </formats> <dependencySets> <dependencySet> <outputDirectory></outputDirectory> <outputFileNameMapping></outputFileNameMapping> <unpack>true</unpack> <scope>runtime</scope> </dependencySet> </dependencySets> <fileSets> <fileSet> <directory>target/classes</directory> <outputDirectory></outputDirectory> </fileSet> <fileSet> <directory>src/main/scripts</directory> <outputDirectory>scripts</outputDirectory> <includes> <include>*.groovy</include> </includes> </fileSet> <fileSet> <directory>src/main/java</directory> <outputDirectory></outputDirectory> <includes> <include>**/*.properties</include> </includes> </fileSet> <fileSet> <directory>src/main/java</directory> <outputDirectory></outputDirectory> <includes> <include>**/*.png</include> </includes> </fileSet> </fileSets> </assembly> On Mon, Apr 14, 2008 at 3:27 PM, Manos Batsis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Lally Singh wrote: > > > Thanks for the quick response.
