I am working on developing a java application which will be scheduled in control-m tool.

the program is configurable without modifying source code,meaning that has the ability to specify log file path, data input file for the program.

control-m or the windows shceduler may or may not have Jre or JDK installed on those machines. What I am thinking to do is to include jre related jars in my project jar(maven module) by specifying it as dependency in my pom.xml so that I don't need to worry whether java installed on those machines from which the program can run.

I am using jdk 1.6.

You can specify this plugin in pom.xml for java dependency. 

<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<source>1.6</source>
<target>1.6</target>
<showDeprecation>true</showDeprecation>
<showWarnings>true</showWarnings>
<executable>${env.JAVA_HOME}/bin/javac</executable>
<fork>true</fork>
<encoding>UTF-8</encoding>
</configuration>
</plugin>

For this JRE must be installed and JAVA_HOME path must be set on system machine.

  • thanks @Gautam jshi, but for running java application , we need javac or java? because executable tag in your post pointed to bin/javac? – mahesh Feb 22 '14 at 19:00

  • can you mention how you set JAVA_HOME and client machine information, e.g. OS ? – unknown Feb 22 '14 at 19:06

  • Thanks,but other way doing it from control panel also does not help me as i don't have permissions to change it in my PC. So I am thinking to add it in pom.xml as property for now? – mahesh Feb 22 '14 at 19:17
