Re: [tycho-user] Creating a shaded/"uber-jar?"

[Jay Jay Billings <jayjaybillings@xxxxxxxxx>]

FYI - Greg and I looked at this more. Something like this appears to work:

            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
                <artifactId>tycho-p2-repository-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>${tycho-version}</version>
                <configuration>
            <!--        <createArtifactRepository>false</createArtifactRepository>-->
                    <includeAllDependencies>true</includeAllDependencies>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>

      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.4.3</version>
        <configuration>
          <!-- put your configurations here -->
        </configuration>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <phase>package</phase>
            <goals>
              <goal>shade</goal>
            </goals>
          </execution>
        </executions>
      </plugin>

This produces a single shaded jar that appears to be correct, but I haven't tried it in a program yet.

Hello Tycho team!

Does anyone have a suggestion for how to create a shaded/uber-jar of a project and all of its dependencies? This would be comparable to using the maven-shaded plugin. I have found one good reference for it on the mailing list:

https://www.eclipse.org/lists/tycho-user/msg05978.html

Is that still the best way to do it?

Here's our use case. Greg Watson and I are looking taking some of the backend bundles from Eclipse PTP and Eclipse ICE to use in some new web services we are building. These are Spring+Vaadin web applications, so it would be easiest for us to just put a gigantic jar on the classpath.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Best,

Jay
