Gradle FAT jar and path problem

HiveMQ Community Edition
1

Hello,

I have strange problem while starting embedded MQTT broker by my application, when all dependencies are packed inside a fat jar created by gradle.

2024-06-11 10:16:06,707 INFO  - Starting EmbeddedHiveMQ.
2024-06-11 10:16:06,713 INFO  - HiveMQ version: Development Snapshot

my code to configure and start broker looks like this:

EmbeddedExtension mqttMessageInterceptorExtension = EmbeddedExtension.builder().withId("MqttMessageInterceptor").withName("Mqtt Message Interceptor").withVersion("1.0.0").withPriority(0).withStartPriority(1000)
				.withAuthor("author").withExtensionMain(new MqttMessageInterceptorExtension()).build();

EmbeddedHiveMQBuilder embeddedHiveMQBuilder = EmbeddedHiveMQ.builder().withConfigurationFolder(Path.of(conf)).withDataFolder(Path.of(data))
						.withEmbeddedExtension(mqttMessageInterceptorExtension);

EmbeddedHiveMQ broker = embeddedHiveMQBuilder.build();
broker.start().join();

The same works without issues, when hivemq libraries are outside the fat jar and they are listed with Class-Path at the jar MANIFEST.

I will appreciate any tip, how to solve the problem.

Thank you in advance!
Marcin
