@User uploaded a file: CLI-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

beware the virus 😛

javap.exe hap\Cli.class Compiled from "Cli.java" public class hap.Cli extends hap.basemodule.ModuleRunner { public static void main(java.lang.String...); protected boolean initializeModule(cmdparser4j.CmdParser4J); protected void initCmdParser(cmdparser4j.CmdParser4J, cmdparser4j.XMLConfigurationReader); public hap.communication.state.CommState createEntryState(hap.communication.Communicator); }

This class cannot be instantiated without the

hap.basemodule.ModuleRunner

class, which is not on the classpath.

Ok, perhaps I'm remembering wrong, but doesn't the JVM throw a ClassNotFoundException when it doesn't find the dependencies it needs?

usually Java is very helpful in its error messages...

No, it should result in a NoClassDefFoundError actually. This is a LinkageError, so I suspect you don't see this since it happens in the actual entry point.

Here is the "solution" to the problem above:

@User uploaded a file: Untitled

Right, that's the name

@permalmberg Can you try to add it to the classpath and see how it goes?

@edvin Yep, just a moment please 🙂

yep, that fixes it.

now I got what I was expecting - a

NoClassDefFoundError

for deps that I haven't provided

Thanks @edvin 🙂

@permalmberg You're welcome 🙂 I have seen the strangest things with classloaders so I know a couple of tricks 🙂

I haven't proof read it yet, but the Workspaces docs are complete. If anyone has input or see (some of the probably large list of) spelling errors, please let me know. Also, if somebody would like write access to the guide to fix spelling errors or contribute content, I'd be more than happy to provide access.

@edvin Once I get this project running again I'll happily help with that

@permalmberg Thank you!

ha! now I can build the JAR with all deps 🙂

🌞

Are you using the Shade plugin @permalmberg ?

@carlw No,

maven-assembly-plugin

I use the assembly plugin when i'm building something very custom. For example, a distribution zip of a bunch of artifacts.

<plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.3</version> <configuration> <artifactSet> <excludes> <exclude>junit:junit</exclude> <exclude>jmock:*</exclude> </excludes> </artifactSet> </configuration> <executions> <execution> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>shade</goal> </goals> </execution> </executions> </plugin>

To build a big JavaFX App where all the deps are in one JAR i use the Shade plugin like this paired with the jarsigner plugin

A complete example is here

ok.

maven-assembly-plugin

does exactly what I want so I think I'll stick with this for now
