Description

An Uberjar is a JAR combining many JARs in repackaged format. In contrast with a fatjar, it does not contain nested JAR-in-JAR.
https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-shade-plugin/ is one of the tools that creates these.

The analysis of such as JAR is challenging because the contents of many JARs are mixed in a single JAR.
