Create multiple runnable Jars (with dependencies included) from a single Maven project [duplicate]

Answer 1

You can do it. You'll need a separate execution for each artifact that you're building (i.e., give each its own id but you can leave the phase as default), and you'll need to specify the finalName and archive/manifest/mainClass for each.

    
        maven-assembly-plugin
        
          
            build-a
            
              
                
                  foobar.Aclass
                
              
              
                jar-with-dependencies
              
              foobar_a.jar
            
          
          
            build-b
            
              
                
                  foobar.Bclass
                
              
              
                jar-with-dependencies
              
              foobar_b.jar
