Spring Boot runnable jar can't load terracotta -

i've been pulling hair out day on one. found workaround want know why it's happening.

i have spring boot app bunch of dependencies (activemq, hibernate, terracotta, etc) runs inside eclipse, , build default spring boot maven plugin:

<build>     <plugins>         <plugin>             <groupid>org.springframework.boot</groupid>             <artifactid>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactid>         </plugin>     </plugins> </build> 

by typing:

mvn clean package 

it builds runnable uberjar , when run it, can see connects activemq, connects database using hibernate, when tries connect terracotta caches get:

i downloaded source code terracotta, spring loader, , found problem in method:

private static string extractfullspec(url url, string pathfromroot) {     string file = url.getfile();     int separatorindex = file.indexof(separator);     if (separatorindex < 0) {         return "";     }     int specindex = separatorindex + separator.length() + pathfromroot.length();     return file.substring(specindex); } 

this method in org.springframework.boot.loader.jar.jarurlconnection in spring-boot-loader-1.4.1.release.jar. problem seems in incoming parameter url. following jars (and far can make out every other jar) loads no problem:

file:/c:/dev/repos/state-engine/calculator-rest-service/target/calculator-rest-service-0.0.2-snapshot.jar!/boot-inf/lib/spring-boot-starter-validation-1.4.1.release.jar!/ file:/c:/dev/repos/state-engine/calculator-rest-service/target/calculator-rest-service-0.0.2-snapshot.jar!/boot-inf/lib/evo-inflector-1.2.1.jar!/ file:/c:/dev/repos/state-engine/calculator-rest-service/target/calculator-rest-service-0.0.2-snapshot.jar!/boot-inf/lib/hibernate-c3p0-3.6.10.final.jar!/ 

but terracotta 1 fails:

file:/c:/dev/repos/state-engine/calculator-rest-service/target/calculator-rest-service-0.0.2-snapshot.jar!/boot-inf/lib/terracotta-toolkit-1.6-runtime-5.10.0.jar! 

the stringindexoutofboundsexception happens because there assumption in method, far can make out, urls end "!/" url terracotta missing trailing '/'.

the workaround add following in pom make launcher propertieslauncher:

<build>     <plugins>         <plugin>             <groupid>org.springframework.boot</groupid>             <artifactid>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactid>             <configuration>                 <layout>zip</layout>             </configuration>         </plugin>     </plugins> </build> 

and put terracotta jar in separate libs folder , run jar java -dloader.path=c:/temp/libs/lib -jar xxx.

this annoying though have have terracotta jar in separate libs folder when every other jar loads fine inside uberjar.

any ideas how uberjar work terracotta inside , using jarlauncher istead of propertieslauncher???
