PropertiesLauncher can now be used to run an executable jar, and by default it will pick up nested archives in lib/ (where the Boot tools puts them). User can provide loader.path (colon-separated) to change the nested path. [#58837492] [bs-330] Add tooling for PropertiesLauncher
Spring Boot - Tools
Spring Boot Tools provides a logical grouping for our various build system plugins, and the modules that support them. We provide a spring-boot-maven-plugin and spring-boot-gradle-plugin for Maven and Gradle respectively.
If you are interested in how we support executable archives, take a look at the spring-boot-loader module. If you need to create executable archives from a different build system, spring-boot-loader-tools may help.
