Can I tailor a maven build based on platform?

Question

Specifically, I run the launch4j-maven-plugin plugin to generate me an .exe file. This only works on Windows, so I was wondering if I could \'opt-o

Answer 1

You can wrap that plugin under separate build profile and just enable that profile on the build that you want

For example:

  ...

generate-exe
  
    
      
        
      
      ...
    
  

  ...

Now pass parameter while launching maven to specify profile

For example:

mvn clean install -Pgenerate-exe
