Attach the snapshot version name with the JAR file

I run a Hadoop app with the following pom.xml file. The file contains all the info for creating the JAR file and required dependencies. The file is provided below:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

When I run the app, it does create the JAR file wordcount.jar in the location,
However, I would like to attach the snapshot version with the JAR name ie. wordcount-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar.
How do I achieve that? I don't have a lot of understanding of the snapshot versioning. I provided the Updated pom.xml file now.
UPDATE
I added the shade plugin but this doesn't solve the issue. Also, there is no JAR in the target directory.

Intellij w/ Maven generates the versioned JAR under target folder
Note: Since you're not using the Shade plugin, then your JAR shouldn't contain the dependencies that you may need

Reporting and Merging multi-module jacoco reports with report-aggregate

Attempting to get one jacoco report that will show all the results from multiple modules.
I am able to see that each of the sub-modules have a jacoco.exec after building the project but unsure of how to get it to output one report that will have all the results from every module combined.
This is what I have included in my Root pom.xml:
<plugin>
<groupId>#project.groupId#</groupId>
<artifactId>jacoco-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>#project.version#</version>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.jacoco</groupId>

<executions>
<execution>
<id>prepare-agent</id>
<goals>
<goal>prepare-agent</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
I created a new module explicitly for reporting purposes. (e.g. report-aggregate-module)
Deleted the group ids and used generic artifact ids for this example:
This is what I put in the pom.xml for this report-aggregate sub-module:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Everything seems to compile okay, the jacoco exec doesn't seem to get created for the report-aggregate-module. Anyone know a solution to this or if I'm doing this incorrectly?

Sorry if this comes a late answer.
I assume that your root pom.xml is an aggregater, with <modules> consisting of module1, module2, and report-aggregate. This is the cause of your trouble: as your root pom.xml is an aggregator, it runs JaCoCo BEFORE your submodules do, so your final report is empty. You should:
Move the configuration of goal report-aggregate of the jacoco-maven-plugin from the root POM to the report-aggregate POM. This should do the trick, because your report-aggregate POM uses <dependencies>, not <modules>.
Keep the configuration of goal prepare-agent of the jacoco-maven-plugin in the root POM.
I suggest you look at the JaCoCo forum https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/jacoco/FpdLbxsXSTY. It refers to a complete demo integration test https://github.com/jacoco/jacoco/tree/master/jacoco-maven-plugin.test/it/it-report-aggregate.

Include source package and dependency only for a profile with Spring Boot maven plugin

In a Spring Boot based project of mine I want to create two different builds from the same project.
The decision on which build is generated should come from a maven profile.
I want to create one build (full) which includes a certain folder src/main/java/com/example/demo/full and a certain dependency, and a second build (default or light) build which does not include them.
Including the dependencies for build full works, but I don't know how to make sure the folder src/main/java/com/example/demo/full is only compiled for the full build.
Here my pom.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

How can I manage to have the mentioned source-folder only compiled for profile full?

Add a second src folder like scr\foo and then add a profile in maven configure this src folder.
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

<source>src/foo/</source>
</sources>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</profile>
</profiles>
Here the source folder is added using the Build Helper Plugin plugin for maven. As it is embedded in the build section of the specific profile, it is only active while executing maven with this profile (see the activation section)

there are problem with disabling one of your maven-source-plugin if this dependency is a part of parent which you cant not give ID to, ill recomend to use phase none with this code to one of your pom.xml files that will disable this.
I also recommend to use command: mvn -Prelease-profile help:effective-pom
to print if you have two of dependencies maven-source-plugin in your code, if yes, disable one of them with this code below:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-source-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>

Spring boot maven plugin with a main class in a dependency

I have a perhaps unusual case where I want to use the spring-boot maven plugin to perform 'mvn spring:start' (before integration tests) on a project with spring services, but the class with the main method is in a jar file. The reason for this is that there will be a number of these spring services that require some common structures in place when started up for testing purposes, so the idea is that there will be a common jar with the common stuff and the class with the main method and each individual service project will simply reuse that.
Unfortunately I am getting ClassNotFoundException for the class with the main method - spring boot clearly isn't looking in the jar files but only in the compiled classes of this project.
The pom in question (trimmed):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745)
UPDATE:
I gave up trying to get this to work. I ended up using the mvn:exec plugin to execute a java command doing what I needed it instead. It works well enough.

Do you have:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
in the dependency too? If yes, then it will make the dependency module impossible to import to the current module/project. So, remove it from the dependency, and add it to the current module that you are importing the main class into.

How to download and compile SwingX

This must be mostly a newbie Maven question.
Since SwingX migrated to Kenai, there are warnings all over the website that many links are broken.. so here is my best attempt.
I went to https://java.net/projects/swingx/downloads/directory/releases
Clicked on "SwingX 1.6.4 All - Sources" (really a non-intuitive, hit-or-miss choice for me, but perhaps it's a naming convention other people understand?)
This downloads swingx-all-1.6.4-sources.jar (why is it even a jar and not a zip?)
However, this source jar does not contain POM.XML.
So, I downloaded swingx-all-1.6.4.jar from the same link, renamed it to .zip, inflated. It does contain
META-INF\maven\org.swinglabs.swingx\swingx-all\POM.XML:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

When I change to the above directory where POM.XML is located and do mvn install, it certainly builds a lot of stuff.. but also says:
[INFO] skip non existing resourceDirectory
F:\swingx\swingx-all-1.6.4\META-INF\m
Maven\org.swinglabs.swingx\swingx-all\src\main\resources
That's because the src directory is nonexistent. Which makes sense, because the .jar files in question is said to be binaries only, but I was hoping some Maven target would download sources or something... and if it's binary only, why does it need to be built? Confused.
At that point, I could probably either copy the src directory from the first zip file to the second, or copy the pom.xml from the second file to the first.. but I am having a feeling I am missing something, and there has to be a more straightforward way.
BTW, there is a third file at the same web page, swingx-mavensupport-1.6.4.jar
So I downloaded that, renamed it to .zip, inflated, found this file:
META-INF\maven\org.swinglabs.swingx\swingx-mavensupport\POM.XML:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

<version>1.6.4</version>
<relativePath>../pom.xml</relativePath>
</parent>
<artifactId>swingx-mavensupport</artifactId>
<name>SwingX Maven Support</name>
</project>
Changed to its directory and ran mvn.install
However, that complained at the lack of a whole lot of files.
I must be getting it all wrong. What's the right way?

Use the following URL for SVN checkout: https://svn.java.net/svn/swingx~svn.
In trunk there is a correct pom.xml file (actualy many of them for different artifacts), so you can easily build the project yourself.
swingx-all-1.6.4-sources.jar (why is it even a jar and not a zip?)
That's the default way sources are packaged and distributed in Maven.
