Change the initial fix for OSX Java 1.6 compatibility by removing the
need for a direct `tools.jar` dependency.
It appears that `system` dependencies are always pulled in when
used in a Maven plugin. This makes the the dependency on `tools.jar`
particularly brittle since we need to make assumptions about where
the jar is located.
Since the tools jar is *only* needed for Spring Loaded support, the
plugin has now been updated to locate the jar programmatically and
call it via reflection. This should reduce the risk of problems when
using the plugin and at the very least isolate them to Spring Loaded
support.
(See original commit b8c4720)
Fixes gh-497
Currently Spring Boot fails in Java 1.6 on Mac OS X due to the
"tools.jar" being integrated into classes.jar in the Apple version of
Java 6.
Apple fixed this with Java 7, but we should still support Java 6. We had
to roll back to maven-plugin-plugin 3.1 to make this work with Java 6
and 7.
All tests pass with Java 6 and Java 7.
Requires Loaded 1.1.5 (or better).
For Maven you can just add springloaded to the dependencies of the
spring-boot plugin (and also set MAVEN_OPTS=-noverify).
For Gradle add springloaded to the build dependencies (-noverify
can be added by the plugin).
In both cases there is also support for adding an arbitrary java agent
via configuration. Samples are provided in
spring-boot-sample-[simple,web-ui].
The ApplicationPlugin is only added if there is no JavaExec task
already present, and additionally it computes its own man class if
none is provided. So "gradle run" and "gradle bootRun" look
superficially similar, but "bootRun" has extra options, including
the agent and Loaded support.
Fixes gh-251, gh-183
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
