I guess you are using the application Gradle plugin.
1. Remove the runtimeOnly
2. Configure the run task in your Gradle script to add the required jars
only when the run task executed.
3. Use the distribution plugin (implicitly includes with application)
configuration
(https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/distribution_plugin.html) to
custumize your launcher scripts which could make use of the LO_HOME
environment variable. So your distribution with the scripts would be
executable as well.

Hi,
Hopefully, you can give mesome hints how to overcome my problem.
I am running Windows 10, Netbeans 12.1 with Gradle 6.6, Java 14.
I have a multi-module, multi-project application with Gradle. The
important parts of build.gradle:
...
apply plugin: 'application'
def LO_HOME = 'C:/Program Files/LibreOffice'
dependencies {
implementation project(':Tools')
compileOnly files("${LO_HOME}/program/classes/libreoffice.jar",
"${LO_HOME}/program/classes/unoloader.jar")
runtimeOnly files("${LO_HOME}/program/classes/libreoffice.jar",
"${LO_HOME}/program/classes/unoloader.jar")
}
application {
mainClass = 'LOTestsGradleMulti.Tests.SWriter'
}
The application runs ok if launched from within Netbeans. So far, so good;
But I cannot be executed correctly from the build distribution, because:
- the LibreOffice jars (libreoffice.jar, unoloader.jar) must reside
in their original location within LibreOffice (otherwise the LO system
cannot be found)
- for the distribution, the jars are copied into the lib fiolder
(where they cannot be used due to the above point)
- the classpath in the created execution script
set
CLASSPATH=%APP_HOME%\lib\Tests.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\libreoffice.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\unoloader.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\Tools.jar
I can make it run if I change
%APP_HOME%\lib\libreoffice.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\unoloader.jar; to refer
to the correct LibreOffice directory, either by introducing a new
variable or fixed path
What I would need:
- how can I avoid copying the jars to the lib folder ?
- how can the classpath created with the correct directory, even
better by using a variable ?
- still may be run from Netbeans
Note:
if I remove the runtimeOnly:
- the jars are not copied to lib
- the classpath still contains the above unusable value
- it cannot be run from the IDE any more
Thanks in advance
