Go to Help->About Eclipse SDK->Configuration Details. See what the java.home
property there is set to and report back. Please.

Subject: [m2eclipse-user] Won't compile because of transitive
dependency not finding its artifact
My project builds ok in command line, but in Eclipse with 0.0.10 I can
not get rid of
22.2.07 16:00:44 CET: Missing:
1) com.sun:tools:jar:1.5.0
Try downloading the file manually from the project website.
Then, install it using the command:
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.sun -DartifactId=tools \
-Dversion=1.5.0 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file
Path to dependency:
1) com.interseek:feed-index-server:jar:1.1.5
2) org.htmlparser:htmlparser:jar:1.6
3) com.sun:tools:jar:1.5.0
1 required artifact is missing.
for artifact:
com.interseek:feed-index-server:jar:1.1.5
from the specified remote repositories:
central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2)
At first I thought the artifact is really missing but it is not. Then I
discovered one of my project's dependency
<dependency>
<groupId>org.htmlparser</groupId>
<artifactId>htmlparser</artifactId>
<version>1.6</version>
</dependency>
is itself dependent on
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun</groupId>
<artifactId>tools</artifactId>
<version>1.5.0</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>${java.home}/../lib/tools.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>
I have put an ant task in my pom to display the ${java.home} just to be
sure where it is pointing
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>echohome</id>
<phase>validate</phase>
<goals>
<goal>run</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<tasks>
<echo>JAVA_HOME=${java.home}</echo>
</tasks>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
It prints
[INFO] [antrun:run {execution: echohome}]
[echo] JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre
I have set the system user variable JAVA_HOME to both
* C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre
* C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_11
and none of them helps getting rid of red error icon on my project's
pom.xml which is well-formed and valid.
Any help appreciated,
Borut
