Release Notes

mojohaus/exec-maven-plugin (org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin)

v3.7.0

Compare Source

Exec Maven Plugin 3.7.0 raises the minimum Maven version to 3.9.0, adds three long-requested exec:java options, and fixes a batch of old bugs in how commands and Java programs are started. Java 8 is still enough to run it. Builds on Maven 3.6.3 to 3.8.x must stay on 3.6.4.

✨ Highlights

  • Maven 3.9.0 or later is required (#​548). Older Maven versions fail at startup with a prerequisite error.
  • classpathDependencyExcludes removes chosen dependencies from the class path of exec:java and exec:exec (#​562, requested in #​68 by @​pramodanarase).
  • mainClass from the manifest. When executableDependency is set and mainClass is not, the Main-Class attribute of that dependency's manifest is used (#​563, #​89 by @​sewe).
  • keepClassLoaderOpen leaves the exec:java class loader open after the program returns, so shutdown hooks and background threads can still load classes (#​561, #​513 by @​tzaeschke).
  • exec:java threading. The main class runs in a non-daemon bootstrap thread that the plugin waits for, so IDE builds such as m2e no longer interrupt it (#​572, #​526 by @​sbj42). A program's own UncaughtExceptionHandler now receives its uncaught exceptions (#​569, #​141 by @​dedeibel).
  • exec:exec fixes. async together with outputFile keeps the output file open until the process ends (#​565, #​63 by @​tarioch). A relative executable resolves against workingDirectory again (#​567, #​92 by @​deepakab03). Unquoted line breaks and tabs in commandlineArgs count as spaces instead of creating empty arguments (#​571, #​466 by @​cebaa). A failed command logs its message at error level and keeps the stack trace for -X (#​568).
  • Module path. Resource directories stay off the module path (#​560, #​534 by @​inaldt), and the %modulepath token is handled (#​532 by @​pzygielo).
  • Documentation moved from APT to Markdown, and the module path argument file is now documented (#​557, #​566).
