Best way to use Maven and create JAR in IntelliJ

[tom1v...@gmail.com]

Hi Peter,

If I load in version 0.17 from Maven, then create an artifact that pulls in everything from the Maven JARs, the manifest of the final JAR is wrong -- looks like it's pulled in from a Maven JAR.

Do you know what I should be doing, or whether the Maven JARs should not have a manifest?


Thanks

Not sure I understand exactly what you mean.  So you're downloading all the jars from maven, then doing something?  I haven't had any issues with v0.17 with a Gradle or Maven build script.

In IntelliJ you can create an executable JAR file by going to File -> Project Structure -> Artifacts -> Create from module with dependencies.

If I do this with the Maven BoofCV 0.17 JARs, and use 'Extract libraries into JAR', it seems that (one of?) the BoofCV JARs has a manifest file that overwrites the one for the new JAR.

This could be buggy behavior from IntelliJ (shouldn't it put in the new, non-library content last?).

But the only reason I'm asking here is I'm not sure how to create executable JARs for projects including BoofCV.

Perhaps I should just use a different method: I want to be able to test, and pass command line args to the app.


Thanks
Tom

OK the first answer here works: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/574594/how-can-i-create-an-executable-jar-with-dependencies-using-maven
But I also had to set the language level: http://codestuff.wordpress.com/2008/04/09/setting-compiler-level-for-maven/
