| 2 | |||
| 3 | "maven-japplication-plugin" is a plugin for assembling native launchers of Java applications for a number of target platforms. Current project artifact and all its declared and transitive dependencies will be bundled into the launcher. Currently supports native launchers for Mac and Windows operating systems and also a "java launcher" - a single jar file that can be run via "java --jar file.jar". -- | ||
| 4 | |||
| 5 | "maven-japplication-plugin" is based on a [[JApplication Ant task>>JApplication]] and has similar capabilities, however the Maven environment provides more information about the project, so plugin has fewer required parameters. | ||
| 6 | |||
| 7 | == Prerequisites == | ||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | Prerequisites and OS requirements are similar to those for [[JApplication Ant task>>JApplication]], specifically Mac launcher can only be built on Mac, and Windows launcher - on Windows. | ||
| 10 | |||

| 13 | === ##org.objectstyle.woproject.maven2:japplication:japplication## === | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | "japplication" is the only defined goal. Its purpose is to assemble a java launcher. It has the parameters described below. The difference from JApplication Ant task is in smarter defaults. | ||
