[java] How can I create an executable JAR with dependencies using Maven?

Okay, so this is my solution. I know it's not using the pom.xml file. But I had the problem my programmme compiling and running on Netbeans but it failing when I tried Java -jar MyJarFile.jar. Now, I don't fully understand Maven and I think this why was having trouble getting Netbeans 8.0.2 to include my jar file in a library to put them into a jar file. I was thinking about how I used to use jar files with no Maven in Eclipse.

It's Maven that can compile all the dependanices and plugins. Not Netbeans. (If you can get Netbeans and be able to use java .jar to do this please tell me how (^.^)v )

[Solved - for Linux] by opening a terminal.

Then

cd /MyRootDirectoryForMyProject

Next

mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:compile

Next

mvn install

This will create jar file in the target directory.

MyJarFile-1.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar

Now

cd target

(You may need to run: chmod +x MyJarFile-1.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar)

And finally

java -jar MyJarFile-1.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar

I'll post this solution in on a couple of other pages with a similar problem. Hopefully I can save somebody from a week of frustration.
