• Plain Java SE Applications
• Other Application Types
• Configurations Other Than <mainClass>

If your project is a plain Java SE application, you need to copy and paste the following configuration into the <plugins> section of your pom.xml file:

<plugin>
	<groupId>com.excelsiorjet</groupId>
	<artifactId>excelsior-jet-maven-plugin</artifactId>
	<version>1.3.2</version>
	<configuration>
		<mainClass></mainClass>
	</configuration>
</plugin>

set the <mainClass> parameter, and use the following command line to build the application:

mvn jet:build

^* For a Tomcat Web application, the <mainClass> parameter is not needed. Instead, you would need to add the <tomcatHome> parameter pointing to a clean Tomcat installation, a copy of which will be used for the deployment of your Web application at build time. See the Tomcat Web Applications section for more details.

A Spring Boot Application and an Invocation Dynamic Library do not need a main class either, and the main class of a Windows Service application must extend a special class com.excelsior.service.WinService of the Excelsior JET WinService API.

For the complete list of parameters, refer to the Javadoc of @Parameter field declarations of the AbstractJetMojo and JetMojo classes. Most of them have default values derived from your pom.xml project, such as the <outputName> parameter specifying the name of the resulting executable.
