So now it’s just a matter of adding the dependencies we need, and writing some code. Great, now we have a fresh maven project that we can work with In the next screen you can set maven artifact properties and if you wish choose an archetype, we’ll be creating from scratch, so skip the archetype and click the finish button In the module section choose maven module and give it a name So lets get started by setting up the project: To have a concrete example to work with, we’ll create a simple Swing app for sending JMS Messages to a destination queue. Thankfully there is a maven plugin to help with this issue: The Maven 2 IDEA UI Designer Plugin. The problem comes when using the gui builder with Maven, since the builder uses form files that are specific for IDEA. IntelliJ IDEA has a great built in tool for making swing projects called GUI Builder, here’s a nice live demo.

In this post I’ll quickly show how to get a maven project under Idea running with the GUI builder, and show you the config you need to build an executable jar for it as well. These are just a few reasons why shipping the application as a package is more practical for production.Making a swing project using IntelliJ IDEA GUI builder with maven, Including executable jar

Finally, if we have multiple servers to deploy, all the above is repeated on each one.

Maven spawns multiple Java processes, each using memory (by default, they each use the same memory amount as the parent process).

Thanks to the previous point, we would also waste CPU and, in the case of a cloud server, money.

The mvn command has to execute all phases of the life cycle (find sources, compile, and run).

Next, we have to copy the codebase to our server, leaving all our proprietary code in plain text.

Then, just because we need to compile the code, we need the full Java Development Kit (JDK).

#Intellij jar executable install#

First of all, we would need to install Maven.

Running the code through Maven at this stage is bad practice for multiple reasons: That is why we cannot apply the process used for our development machine to a server with live customers. When the log shows the line containing ‘Started Application', our web application is ready to be queried via the browser at the address The more we move towards production, the more the conversation shifts towards stability and security.

We only need one dependency to let the plugin know we want to use Tomcat to run our code:
