As far as I understand: Maven is not suitable for launch4J, because the latter has its own mechanism, to build an exe.

Have you already tried to use a ready-built-for-Windows sikulixapi.jar
(setup option 2)?

Title:
  [request] Launch4J support: sikulixapi.jar should work, when wrapped
  into an exe

Status in Sikuli:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  based on the related question.

  from comment #1:

  the current implementations of SikuliX will not work, if you pack everything into the exe,
  only the version launch-only work out of the box
  <launch4jConfig>
    <dontWrapJar>true</dontWrapJar>

  ... but I guess, this is not what you want ;-)

  If you wait a few days: there will be sikulixapi.jar, that can be
  wrapped in the exe.

  The problem with Launch4J:
  If anything goes wrong inside, as in this case, the exe simply dies without any comment.

  The problem with SikuliX:
  SikuliX exports the native libraries at runtime to the libs folder.
  this currently is based on the existence of a real jar, which is not available in this case of wrapped exe.

  The solution:
  I have already added a feature, to just access the resources from class path.
  This is not yet available in sikulixapi.jar, but will be in a few days.
  The libs will then be exported to temp.
  In any case (as now): existing libs are checked and an export is only done, if needed based on timestamp and the libs folder is added to system path at runtime dynamically.
