I have the following contents in src/main/clojure/za/co/pb/maven_test/test.clj
file:
(ns za.co.pb.maven-test.test
(:gen-class))
(defn -main []
(println "Hello world!"))
I also have a POM that has the necesary dependencies on clojure-maven-plugin with the compile execution.
If I execute a mvn package
command, I get a target/maven-test-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
file and if I look in the classes folder I have these files in the folder target/classes/za/co/pb/maven_test
:
test.class
test.clj
test__init.class
test$loading__4410__auto__.class
test$_main.class
This, as far as I know, is appropriate.
However, when I run this command:
java -cp target\app-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar za.co.pb.maven_test.test
I get this:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: clojure/lang/IFn

Could not find the main class: za.co.pb.maven_test.test. Program will exit.
You don't have the clojure jars in the classpath. You can either embed them as per Stuart's response, or if you don't like having all the dependencies embedded in a single jar, you can use the dependency plugin and the jar plugin to get this working nicely.
See: http://groups.google.com/group/enclojure/msg/87159854fcb0e708 for a summary (note, there's a typo in the linked post, the package should be called "foo").
