Markus KARG created MECLIPSE-709:
------------------------------------
Summary: The message "Workspace defines a VM that does not contain
a valid jre/lib/rt.jar: C:\Program Files\Java\jre7" is invalid on Java 7
Key: MECLIPSE-709
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-709
Project: Maven 2.x Eclipse Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.8
Environment: Win 7, de_DE, Eclipse Indigo, JDK 1.7.0_02, Cp1252
Reporter: Markus KARG
Priority: Minor
When running mvn eclipse:eclipse after having installed JDK 1.7.0_02, the
plugin complains about the following:
[WARNING] Workspace defines a VM that does not contain a valid jre/lib/rt.jar:
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7
[WARNING] Workspace defines a VM that does not contain a valid jre/lib/rt.jar:
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_02\jre
In fact it is just normal that there is no jre/lib/rt.jar found in
%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre7, due to Oracle's default directory layout in Java 7.
That generation of JRE places rt.jar inside of %ProgramFiles%\Java\jre7\lib
instead.
So the plugin should get changed to check for rt.jat inside of %JAVA_HOME%/lib
instead of %JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib.
