Trying to copy additional files to jar
I am trying to include my dependancy jars in a file inside the jar, in order
to make it easier on users by not requiring making sure files are in the
right place or class path is set up right. So I first copy all dependancies
using the maven-dependency-plugin then I want to use the maven-jar-plugin to
add the classpath to the manifest and then include the jars for these
dependancies together.
Basically how do I add additional files to the JAR using maven-jar-plugin?
Here is what I am doing
plugin
groupIdorg.apache.maven.plugins/groupId
artifactIdmaven-dependency-plugin/artifactId
executions
execution
idcopy-dependencies/id
phasepackage/phase
goals
goalcopy-dependencies/goal

This throws me an error

Ok so then what good is the

I suggest you have a look at the jar specification... you'll find that jar
