Depending on ASM itself can cause problems as it can clash with other
libraries' dependency on it. This commit updates
spring-boot-loader-tools to depend upon spring-core and use its
repackaged copy of ASM instead. Depending on spring-core also brings
with it the advantage of giving access to its various bits of utility
code.
spring-boot-maven-plugin has been updated to remove its ASM
exclusions as they will no longer clash with the version from
spring-boot-loader-tools
(59483608)
The Git plugin was primarily being used to provide version information
that Boot's maven plugin can add into the MANIFEST.MF of the uber-jars
that it creates under the Spring-Boot-Commit-Id attribute.
This commit removes the Git plugin from Boot's own projects, but
leaves it in the spring-boot-starter-parent for use by Spring
Boot-based applications.
The attribute in the uber-jars' MANIFEST.MF has been replaced with a
Spring-Boot-Version attribute. The value of this attribute is the
implementation version of Repackager class's package.
To use PropertiesLauncher instead of JarLauncher in an
executable JAR we have provided tooling support. In Maven
(using the starter parent to default some of the settings):
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<layout>ZIP</layout>
</configuration>
</plugin>
in Gradle:
apply plugin: "spring-boot"
springBoot {
layout = 'ZIP'
}
}
[Fixes#58837492] [bs-330] Add tooling for PropertiesLauncher
PropertiesLauncher can now be used to run an executable jar, and by
default it will pick up nested archives in lib/ (where the Boot
tools puts them). User can provide loader.path (colon-separated)
to change the nested path.
