I want to wrap my jar with launch4j to an exe file. Here is my pom.xml:

            <!-- LAUNCH4J ENDE -->
        </plugins>
    </pluginManagement>
</build>

<dependencies>
    ...
</dependencies>

And this is my batch:

@echo off
call mvn -D skipTests clean assembly:attached
pause

I get a correct jar with my dependencies but i dont get an exe file. Is there something else to do? Is an descriptor.xml really necessary?

Though I did not check your pom properly. As it is producing correct jar, I think it is fine. Did you try mvn package ?
