[ANN] Java Application Plugin (javaapp) 1.3 released

The maven-plugins team is pleased to announce the Java Application Plugin 1.3 
release! 

http://maven-plugins.sourceforge.net

Plugin to generate an executable JAR 

Changes in this version include:

  New Features:

o Drop-in replacement for uberjar. 
o Added support for multiproject goals: 
  - javaapp:javaapp 
  - javaapp:install-snapshot 
  - javaapp:deploy 
  - javaapp:deploy-snapshot 
o Added flexible extension support. 
o Added support for uberjar.bundle property. 

  Fixed bugs:

o Fix manifest entries. 
o Fix internal usage of deprecated deploy and resource plugins. 

  Changes:

o Cumulate licenses in META-INF. 
o Use artifact plugin for install and deploy. 

  Removed features:

  manifest entries, that were only used for applets loading dependent jars 
  (they are already included using javaapp).  

To automatically install the plugin, type the following on a single line:

Re: [ANN] Java Application Plugin (javaapp) 1.3 released

Posted by Geoffrey <jc...@hotmail.com>.
Hi,

This looks like an interesting plugin, but I don't understand on which level
to use it in a multiproject.
Use it on the parent level or create a seperate module to create the final
executable jar?

Are there any open source projects that use this plugin to create their
executable jar?
Do any of those use it in combination with the distribution or NSIS plugin?

I 'd love to use it for http://simplegamenet.sf.net

Thanks for any and all help,
Geoffrey
