I can’t create or run fresh JPlag version

[Mazdaywik]

Running partially fail

I want use latest version (master), but not release v2.11.8-SNAPSHOT because it have errors in C++ parser.

I cloned repository and run:

mvn clean generate-sources package

I ran it:

java -jar jplag/jplag/target/jplag-2.11.8-SNAPSHOT.jar -l c/c++ .

but got

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: jplag/Language

It download to folder ~/.m2/repository/edu/kit/ipd/jplag/ old (for release v2.11.8-SNAPSHOT) files and creates JAR with buggy C++ parser.

I’m newbie in maven, help me run or create ‘master’ version!

I've just started to use jplag, but I think it's because just building that jar doesn't include the dependencies. You should also cd jplag, followed by a mvn clean generate-sources assembly:assembly. You can then use the i/don/t/know/where/you/saved/this/jplag/jplag/target/jplag-2.11.8-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar as a single runnable jar.
