My appology for poking somany questions ;-)  I think i now understand what
launch4j is for

I also interest on how to get one plugin and have it do it all.

How about make your launch4j plugin to pull down neccessary launch4j binary
bundles and use
it to produce your executable.  I wonder if the Maven folks would allow us
to upload binary bundles
to maven central

Btw, do you plan to donate it back to OS? ;-)

I intend to use it in conjunction with the assembly plugin. I'll generate
an
exe file to wrap my jar, then I'll use the assembly plugin to tar up my
exe
along with docs, a lib directory for dependencies, etc.

But from reading this mailing list, I've gotten the impression that people
use the assembly plugin in all sorts of elaborate ways. I have a
single-module project, packaged as a jar, and as part of the packaging
phase, I toss that jar into a tarball along with everything else. Is that
normal? It sounds like a lot of people use a top-level pom-packaged module
that just runs the assembly plugin, and then a sub-module to create the
jar.

I don't really want to recreate the assembly plugin. I just want to turn a
jar into an exe.
