creating runnable jar file
Hi i have a runnable jar files that depends on hibernate and spring (latest
version of their jar file respectively).
I tried maven-jar-plugin.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
<mainClass>company.main.execute</mainClass>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
but this doesn't allow me to distribute the file to other machine.
I also tried maven assembly plugin.
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<filters>
<filter>src/main/filters/build.properties</filter>
</filters>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/main/assemble/descriptor.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
<workDirectory>target/assembly/work</workDirectory>
<archive>
<manifest>
<mainClass>company.main.execute</mainClass>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
my descriptor.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<assembly>
<id>jar-with-dependencies</id>
<formats>
<format>jar</format>
</formats>
<includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory>
<dependencySets>
<dependencySet>
<outputDirectory>lib</outputDirectory>
<unpack>true</unpack>
<scope>runtime</scope>
</dependencySet>
</dependencySets>
<fileSets>
<fileSet>
<directory>target/classes</directory>
<outputDirectory></outputDirectory>
</fileSet>
</fileSets>
</assembly>
however i get this error
about namespace www.springframework.org/schema/tx cannot be found.
Is their a better way to create deployable jar files that runs on different
machine.

It sounds like you are trying to create an uberjar, AKA a
jar-with-dependencies.
An uberjar is a new big jar created by unpacking all the dependent jars
into one big jar, which being self contained, will run on any machine
without needing any special classpath setup.
The assembly plugin can create uberjars for you, look at the docs for
the assembly plugin to see how.
Regards,
Graham

Hello, something like the following works for me everytime. The only drawback is long compile times on slow machines. HTH, David

Yet some, not wise, go to the other side of the globe, to barbarous and unhealthy regions, and devote ten or twenty years, in that they may live,-that is, keep comfortably warm,- and die in New England at last.
