Previously, the classpath of bootJar, bootWar, and bootRun was
configured directly as a FileCollection derived from the main source
set's runtime classpath. This direct configuration meant that
subsequent changes to the main source set's runtime classpath may not
have been picked up.
This commit changes the configuration of the classpath to use a
Callable. This indirection allows subsequent changes to the main
source set's runtime classpath to be picked up as long as they
occur before Gradle calls the callable.
Closes gh-29672
Update `launch.script` so that the `run_user` variable is only set when
the user actually exists. Prior to this commit, if the jar file was
owned by a non-existing user the startup script could fail.
Fixes gh-29370
Previously, when writing a repackaged jar, an attempt to write all of
an entry's parent directories would always be made, irrespective of
whether or not the entry itself had already been written. This was
inefficient as, due to the way that the jar is written, once an entry
itself has been written, we know that all of its parent directories
will also have been written.
This commit updates the jar writer so that no attempt is made to
write parent directory entries if the entry itself has already been
written.
Fixes gh-29175
Update the Maven and Gradle packaging for war files so that a
`classpath.idx` file is written into the archive that provides the
original order of the classpath, as was previously done for jar files.
The `WarLauncher` class will use this file when running as an exploded
archive to ensure that the classpath order is the same as when running
from the far war.
Fixes gh-19875
