将Jsprit Maven项目导出到可执行jar

Question

I'm trying to create an executable .jar from a maven project using eclipse mars. The project itself can be found on https://github.com/jsprit/jsprit

So far I have successfully imported jsprit to eclipse as a maven project and I am able to run examples as Java Application.

I haven't yet been very successful at exporting it as an executable jar. Let's say I want to export SimpleExample.java. I have created the .jar but if I try to run jsprit-examples-1.6.2-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar I get the following error message:

Error: Could not find or load main class jsprit.examples.SimpleExample

The pom.xml which is located under jsprit-examples is following:

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

Everything else is as same as in the github repository. I ran 'Maven Build...' on jsprit-examples. Under 'Edit Configuration->Goals' I did 'clean package assembly:single'.

This is my first experience with a maven build so it might be a very simple problem to someone who has some experience with maven.

Thanks!

I you want to put all the dependencies in one executable jar, you need to create an uber-jar. I usually do this with the maven shade plugin .
