The Fat Jar Eclipse Plug-In is a Deployment-Tool which deploys an Eclipse java-project into one executable jar.
It adds the Entry "Build Fat-JAR" to the Export-Wizard.
In addition to the eclipse standard jar-exporter referenced classes and jars are included to the "Fat-Jar", so the resulting jar contains all needed classes and can be executed directly with "java -jar", no classpath has to be set, no additional jars have to be deployed.
If you've spent any time doing Java programming with Eclipse it must have occurred to you that support for viewing and editing Jar files is a little limited. Having used Eclipse for over eighteen months, and since I hadn't yet built an Eclipse plugin, I decided to dive right in and build a viewer/editor that would let me stop using File Explorer or WinZip(1) for manipulating the Jar files in my projects. Hopefully forever.
Five days later here it is: JarPlug, the Java ARchive PLUGin for Eclipse (sorry... :). And what days: going up the learning curve of Eclipse plugin internals and trying to figure out a workflow paradigm for editing Jar files that made sense inside the Eclipse IDE. More on that later.
Die ersten javafähigen Handys verwendeten netzwerkabhängige Techniken, um Software auf dem Handy zu installieren. Alle Verfahren waren völlig unterschiedlich.

Xerces used to be released as a single jar (xerces.jar), but was split into two jars, one containing the API (xml-apis.jar) and one containing the implementations of those APIs (xercesImpl.jar). Many older Maven POMs still declare a dependency on xerces.jar. At some point in the past, Xerces was also released as xmlParserAPIs.jar, which some older POMs also depend on.
