jaxws-tools-maven-plugin handles windows paths in MANIFEST-MF incorrectly ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBWS-4155 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBWS-4155 Project: JBoss Web Services Issue Type: Bug Components: jaxws-tools-maven-plugin Affects Versions: jbossws-jaxws-tools-maven.plugin-1.2.2.Final Reporter: Jan Blizňák Assignee: Jan Blizňák Priority: Critical There is a problem with fix https://github.com/jbossws/jaxws-tools-maven-plugin/commit/e166dab2b80f56... . On Windows, this results in MANIFEST.MF containing paths for these additonal plugin dependencies like: {code:java} C:\Users\Administrator\.m2\repository\org\jboss\ws\jbossws-common-tools\1.2.4.Final\jbossws-common-tools-1.2.4.Final.jar C:\Users\Administrator\.m2\repository\log4j\log4j\1.2.14\log4j-1.2.14.jar C:\Users\Administrator\.m2\repository\gnu\getopt\java-getopt\1.0.13\java-getopt-1.0.13.jar {code} This eventually leads to misleading error {{Error: Could not find or load main class org.jboss.ws.tools.cmd.WSConsume}}. The real problem is that java is unable to load log4j and getopt libraries. According to https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/jar/jar.html#class... the class-path entries are URLs, so above jars should be linked as: {code:java} file:/C:/Users/Administrator/.m2/repository/org/jboss/ws/jbossws-common-tools/1.2.4.Final/jbossws-common-tools-1.2.4.Final.jar file:/C:/Users/Administrator/.m2/repository/log4j/log4j/1.2.14/log4j-1.2.14.jar file:/C:/Users/Administrator/.m2/repository/gnu/getopt/java-getopt/1.0.13/java-getopt-1.0.13.jar {code} or {code:java} file:///C:/Users/Administrator/.m2/repository/org/jboss/ws/jbossws-common-tools/1.2.4.Final/jbossws-common-tools-1.2.4.Final.jar file:///C:/Users/Administrator/.m2/repository/log4j/log4j/1.2.14/log4j-1.2.14.jar file:///C:/Users/Administrator/.m2/repository/gnu/getopt/java-getopt/1.0.13/java-getopt-1.0.13.jar {code}
