Build a jar using jdk 1.3 and maven 1.0.2

I'm trying to build a jar file using jdk1.3 and maven 1.0.2. This is old java code which means I can't use a newer version of java. Below is the pom file I'm currently using:

When calling: maven -X -p pom.xml jar:jar, a target workspace is created with a jar called Base and three folders: classes, test-classes, test-reports. The folders and the jar are empty. How can I compile the .java files into classes in: com\abc\ebill\base***.java and com\abc\team\common\domain***.java and add them to the jar?

Running java main program using maven

While running the executing the maven main class using below command:
mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.xoxo.amqtest.SubscriberDriver"
I assumed that all the jars must be picked up from the maven repo. But instead it throws below exception.
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/xoxo/infra/protectedpkg/ProtectedPackageLoadException
This maven project runs fine in eclipse. Is there any way to specify maven to pick all the dependencies from maven repo instead of adding all the dependencies like below
java -cp ./:./target/amq-subscriber-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar:/x/home/stvu/.m2/repository/com/xoxo/submodule/infra-jsse-2.0.1.jar com.xoxo.amqtest.SubscriberDriver

I've done this in the past using exec-maven-plugin:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.2.1</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>execute-your-main</id>

<goals>
<goal>java</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<mainClass>com.xoxo.amqtest.SubscriberDriver</mainClass>
<arguments>
<argument>ADD_YOUR_ARGUMENTS_IF_NEEDED</argument>
</arguments>
</configuration>
</execution>
</plugin>

take look at appassembler plugin.
http://mojo.codehaus.org/appassembler/appassembler-maven-plugin/
Configuration will look like
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>appassembler-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.6</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>assemble</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<programs>
<program>
<mainClass>fun.Tester</mainClass>
<id>app</id>
</program>
</programs>
</configuration>
</plugin>
it will create directory name 'appassembler' in you target directory which will have all dependent jars and executable according to platform in 'bin' directory

GWT Module ... not found in project sources or resources

I am new to GWT. I tried to make a web application and uses the following maven config to config gwt. I put it in a profile so only when the profile is invoked will the gwt being compiled.
The profile is like:
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>gwtCompile</id>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>gwt-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.5.0</version>
<configuration>
<extraJvmArgs>-Xmx512M -Xss1024k </extraJvmArgs>
<module>com.mycompany.MyMainModule</module>
<inplace>true</inplace>
<force>true</force>
<disableCastChecking>true</disableCastChecking>
<style>PRETTY</style>
<warSourceDirectory>${basedir}/war</warSourceDirectory>
</configuration>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.gwt</groupId>
<artifactId>gwt-user</artifactId>
<version>${gwt.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.gwt</groupId>
<artifactId>gwt-dev</artifactId>
<version>${gwt.version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>compileJS</id>
<phase>process-classes</phase>
<goals>
<goal>compile</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</profile>
When I run the command:
mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true -PgwtCompile
it gave me error message:
GWT Module com.mycompany.MyMainModule not found in project sources or resources.
My MyMainModule.gwt.xml is like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<module>
<inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.User' />
<entry-point class='com.mycompany.MyMainModule' />
<source path='client' />
<source path='shared' />
</module>
I can see some online documents said multiple module project is supposed to have this error. But mime is not a multi-module project.
Can someone let me know what possibly went wrong with this?
Many thanks.
EDIT:
I have got this in place:
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>${basedir}/src/main/java</directory>
<includes>
<include>**/client/**</include>
<include>**/*.gwt.xml</include>
</includes>
</resource>
<resource>
<directory>${basedir}/src/main/resources</directory>
<includes>
<include>**/*</include>
</includes>
</resource>
</resources>

Try adding resources tag in your build tag.
<build>
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>${basedir}/src/main/java</directory>
</resource>
<resource>
<directory>${basedir}/src/main/resources</directory>
</resource>
</resources>
<!-- **Other build tags** -->
</build>

I found the solution to this. The problem was that the module specified in the gwt-maven-plugin has to be the exact path name of the .gwt.xml file, not the entry point file.
So the configuration file has to be:
<configuration>
<extraJvmArgs>-Xmx512M -Xss1024k </extraJvmArgs>
<module>com.mycompany.myoroject.MyMainModule</module>
<inplace>true</inplace>
<force>true</force>
<disableCastChecking>true</disableCastChecking>
<style>PRETTY</style>
<warSourceDirectory>${basedir}/war</warSourceDirectory>
</configuration>
becasue my MyMainModule.gwt.xml is under src/main/com/mycompany/myproject/MyMainModule.gwt.xml.
Many thanks for your answers.

Important config vars are outputDirectory and webappDirectory. See here:

BTW: you should only put java files into the end result (like the other response suggests) when building a module that gets included in another, final, compiled UI module. Otherwise, it breaks the incremental java-parsing mechanism of gwt:run.

Classpath on JavaFX using javafxpackager

I'm new to JavaFX and I'm trying to build my first application, using Maven. Well, since I don't really like to mix ant with maven, I got an alternative solution, using exec-maven-plugin and javafxpackager, found here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/java/enterprisefxpt3-1735081.html
Problem is, I don't like the way it unpacks all my dependencies inside the jar, so I modified it a "little", resulting on this:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

Well, I think it really looks good, more than expected! Well, all but one "little" problem: I don't have the classpath entry on the Manifest.MF, so any dependencies added aren't found on runtime, and I have no clue how to add it. Any ideas?
Thanks all for the help!
EDIT: Maybe this can help, javafxpackager has an argument classpath that I can pass a list of dependencies. So what I need is the classpath, maybe as a String, just to add it to javafxpackager.

If you look at the exec-maven-plugin POM configuration you see that you can add a <classpath/> tag. I haven't tried it but it should do it.
<configuration>
<executable>${java.home}/../bin/javafxpackager</executable>
<arguments>
<argument>-createjar</argument>
<argument>-appclass</argument>
<argument>test.HelloWorldApp</argument>
<argument>-srcdir</argument>
<argument>${project.build.directory}/classes</argument>
<argument>-outdir</argument>
<argument>${project.build.directory}/dist</argument>
<argument>-outfile</argument>
<argument>${project.name}.jar</argument>
<argument>-classpath</argument>
<!-- automatically creates the classpath using all project dependencies,
also adding the project build directory -->
<classpath/>
</arguments>
</configuration>

check out this pom.xml for a personal javafx application
it does not use javafxpackager / javapackager, but is a perfect runnable jar. jar will be under target/${project.name}-${version}-jar-with-dependencies.jar
