Non programmatic use, Failed to load Main-Class

[oschrenk]

Is it possible the produce scala files in a non programmatic way. I tried the jar

wget -O scalabuff-compiler_2.10-1.3.3.jar http://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=net/sandrogrzicic/scalabuff-compiler_2.10/1.3.3/scalabuff-compiler_2.10-1.3.3.jar
    java -jar scalabuff-compiler_2.10-1.3.3.jar

but get

Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from
    scalabuff-compiler_2.10-1.3.3.jar

And indeed there is no such definition. Is there a way to do this?

The MANIFEST.MF in the jar from Maven Central

is very much different, from the one you get when executing sbt package

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Implementation-Vendor: net.sandrogrzicic
Implementation-Title: scalabuff-compiler
Implementation-Version: 1.3.3

Main-Class: net.sandrogrzicic.scalabuff.compiler.ScalaBuff

Latter also doesn't work. java -jar scalabuff-compiler/target/scala-2.10/scalabuff-compiler_2.10-1.3.3.jar produces

So I found the sbt way of compiling the .proto files. I documented my findings in the wiki on the usage examples page. Honestly I would like to have this information in the README.

Still it would be nice to having a working solution that works with a single jar.

[SandroGrzicic]

You need to start ScalaBuff with the scala command or at least include the necessary Scala libaries.

As for the missing main-class, it might be due to the SBT-OSGi plugin that I'm using.

[oschrenk]

I was under the assumption that it produced a Java executable jar. Understandably it doesn't. So this is the way:

$ sbt package
$ scala scalabuff-compiler/target/scala-2.10/scalabuff-compiler_2.10-1.3.3.jar 

There is still the issue that the published jar, doesn't contain the definition of the Main-Class
