How to make executable jar file with dependency?
Hi,
Our codes depend on some external libraries, such as xerces.jar, xalan.jar,
..
How to make an executable jar that include everything?
My end command is expected to be:
java -jar myprj.jar
What is the best practice in Maven to deploy pure non-j2ee java code?
Should I pack everything into one big jar, or deploy all different jar files
into one directory?
We have tried the manifest in project.properties, and the resource in
project.xml.
Thanks

I've had better luck with this:
http://maven-plugins.sourceforge.net/maven-javaapp-plugin/index.html
with uberjar, it packaged just fine, but there was a *long* delay in
starting up. I don't exactly remember the reasons anymore, but
basically, to get dependent jars into your classpath (and those jars are
inside your uberjar) they use a custom classloader to do the trickery.
javaapp works a bit differently to make the classpath work: at
generation time, it unpacks ALL of the dependent jars into one big tree,
and then jars that up.
