SpringBoot Application's main class is not found when using PropertiesLauncher with the new nested jar support

As reported by 3.2.0 RC1 release notes, we had to add

<loaderImplementation>CLASSIC</loaderImplementation>

to our spring-boot-maven-plugin definition in order to keep the generated exec JAR working. Without the additional configuration, running java -jar ... leads to error

The application itself is based on Spring Cloud Gateway 4.1.0-M2.

No issues until 3.2.0-M3.

Thanks for trying the release candidate, @ilgrosso. You should be able to work around the problem and use the new loader implementation by adding src/main/resources/loader.properties to your application with the following contents:

loader.path=BOOT-INF/classes/,BOOT-INF/lib/*

Thank you, I'll try this out.

@wilkinsona I confirm the workaround is effective, though I had to merge it with the existing LOADER_PATH env variable.

Is any of the two workarounds needed anyway for final 3.2.0?
