Maven Shade插件-NoClassDefFound

Question

I am trying to create a jar to send to a colleague for testing purposes. My program works fine on the Eclipse IDE. However, when I try to use mvn install and mvn package to compile it into a jar, when I try to run the jar, I get the following error: [NoClassDefFound][1] (click on the link to see the screenshot).

Here is my POM file:

I would be really grateful if someone could help me to figure out what's happening.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT 2

I added the following code just for testing purposes on my program:

package com.br.iacit.tutorialdoJar;

public class App {
public static void main( String[] args )
{      System.out.println(com.sun.media.imageioimpl.common.PackageUtil.getVendor());
}

}

On eclipse ide it shows Sun Microsystems, Inc. however in my jar file it prints null. Maybe it has something to do with it?

Answer 1

I think you are missing the dependencies in your classpath, to correct this you might use the maven dependency plugin:

     <build>
         <plugins>
           <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
            <executions>
                <execution>
                    <id>copy-dependencies</id>
                    <phase>prepare-package</phase>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>copy-dependencies</goal>
                    </goals>
                    <configuration>
                        <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/lib</outputDirectory>
                        <overWriteReleases>false</overWriteReleases>
                        <overWriteSnapshots>false</overWriteSnapshots>
                        <overWriteIfNewer>true</overWriteIfNewer>
                    </configuration>
                </execution>
            </executions>
        </plugin>
     </plugins>
   </build>

Then you would need also to add the classpath to your manifest, for shade I think you need to add in <ManifestEntries> the following:

 <Class-Path>${project.build.directory}/lib</Class-Path>

Edit: Fair enough if you don't need the shade plugin, what I can suggest to you is the pom below, which uses a simpler plugin to compile the depedencies, the maven dependency plugin :

Answer 2

I solved my problem by adding the following attributes to my pom file:

<manifestEntries>
    <Main-Class>com.br.iacit.tutorialdoJar.ImageLab</Main-Class>
    <Specification-Title>Java Advanced Imaging Image I/O Tools</Specification-Title>
    <Specification-Version>1.1</Specification-Version>
    <Specification-Vendor>Sun Microsystems, Inc.</Specification-Vendor>
    <Implementation-Title>com.sun.media.imageio</Implementation-Title>
    <Implementation-Version>1.1</Implementation-Version>
    <Implementation-Vendor>Sun Microsystems, Inc.</Implementation-Vendor>
</manifestEntries>

Here is my final POM file:

http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"> 4.0.0
