Create distributable standalone jar #2

Closed nelsonxb closed 9 years ago

nelsonxb commented 9 years ago

We need to be able to distribute this in a manner that makes it accessible.

This means a "fat jar" containing all dependencies that will auto-extract the LWJGL natives.

I have started on this in a local branch (I might push it later, but it is certainly not ready to merge).

Gradle easily handles creating the fat jar easily (thanks to a plugin).

I am having trouble with extracting the natives though. I'm sure I managed this before, but for some reason I can't make it work correctly now.

Problem: Java can't seem to find the AppGameContainer class, even though it's included in the jar.

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class org.newdawn.slick.AppGameContainer
