Change CLI generated JARs to use the standard `JarLauncher` instead of
a custom `JarRunner`. The `PackagedSpringApplicationLauncher` is used
as the `Start-Class` which in turn calls `SpringApplication.run()`.
A new command, jar, has been added to the CLI. The command can be
used to create a self-contained executable JAR file from a CLI app.
Basic usage is:
spring jar <jar-name> <source-files>
For example:
spring jar my-app.jar *.groovy
The resulting jar will contain the classes generated by compiling the
source files, all of the application's dependencies, and entries
on the application's classpath.
By default a CLI application has the current working directory on
its classpath. This can be overridden using the --classpath option.
Any file that is referenced directly by the classpath is always
included in the jar. Any file that is found a result of being
contained within a directory that is on the classpath is subject to
filtering to determine whether or not it should be included. The
default includes are public/**, static/**, resources/**,
META-INF/**, *. The default excludes are .*, repository/**, build/**,
target/**. To be included in the jar, a file must match one of the
includes and none of the excludes. The filters can be overridden using
the --include and --exclude options.
Closes#241
Update the maven and gradle plugins to fail the build if a single
unique main class cannot be found. Additionally plugins will warn
if the search is taking too long.
Fixes gh-210
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

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.
