To pass arguments to the jar: java -jar myjar.jar one two You can access them in the main() method of “Main-Class” (mentioned in the manifest.mf file of a JAR). String one = args[0]; String two = args[1];
There are a variety of solutions, depending on your distribution requirements. Just use a jar. This assumes that the user has the the correct java version installed, otherwise the user will get “class-file format version” exceptions. This is fine for internal distribution inside a company. Use launch4j and an installer like NSIS. This gives you … Read more
The following is my solution. Test it if it works for you: <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <id>copy-dependencies</id> <phase>prepare-package</phase> <goals> <goal>copy-dependencies</goal> </goals> <configuration> <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/classes/lib</outputDirectory> <overWriteReleases>false</overWriteReleases> <overWriteSnapshots>false</overWriteSnapshots> <overWriteIfNewer>true</overWriteIfNewer> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <archive> <manifest> <addClasspath>true</addClasspath> <!– <classpathPrefix>lib</classpathPrefix> –> <!– <mainClass>test.org.Cliente</mainClass> –> </manifest> <manifestEntries> <Class-Path>lib/</Class-Path> </manifestEntries> </archive> </configuration> </plugin> The first plugin puts … Read more
Decompress the JAR file and look for the manifest file (META-INF\MANIFEST.MF). The manifest file of JAR file might contain a version number (but not always a version is specified).
zip -d file.jar unwanted_file.txt jar is just a zip file after all. Definitely much faster than uncompressing/recompressing.
Please refer to surefire:test for details, but the most useful properties are: -Dmaven.test.failure.ignore=true (or -DtestFailureIgnore=true) – will ignore any failures occurred during test execution -Dmaven.test.error.ignore=true ( deprecated ) – will ignore any errors occurred during test execution -DskipTests – would compile the test classes but skip test execution entirely -Dmaven.test.skip=true – would not even compile … Read more
If you create a java class with public static void main(String[] args), Eclipse will run that main method for you by right clicking on the file itself, or on the file in the project explorer, then choosing: “Run As” -> “Java Application.” Once you do this, Eclipse stores information about your class, so you can … Read more
Any ideas on how to resolve this? Delete one. I’ve been playing with the build path to no success. Step #1: Undo all that. If you are messing with the build path, on R16 or higher version of the ADT plugin for Eclipse, you’re doing it wrong. Step #2: Pick one of those two versions … Read more
Now for the missing class problem. I’m an Eclipse Java EE developer and have been in the habit for many years of adding third-party libraries via the “User Library” mechanism in Build Path. Of course, there are at least 3 ways to add a third-party library, the one I use is the most elegant, in … Read more
