I use a solution based on assembly + custom generic scripts. The assembly packages my app into \lib \bin \etc and the scripts (.sh and .bat) automatically add lib/*.jar to my CLASSPATH Otherwise, as Emmanuel pointed, the exec plugin might help you. Configure the plugin in your <build> section and specify your arguments on the command line using the appropriate property.
