Apparently that Maven FAQ entry is not always valid.

The entry for this in the Maven FAQ does exactly that (though it does recommend the '..' use). http://maven.apache.org/general.html#tools-jar-dependency Chris------------------------------------------------------------------------ *From:* Matt Brozowski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Sent:* Thursday, 22 February, 2007 11:27 *To:* [email protected] *Subject:* Re: [m2eclipse-user] Won't compile because of transitive dependency not finding its artifact On Feb 22, 2007, at 12:13 PM, Eugene Kuleshov wrote:BTW, it is a bad practice to use "..' reference from JRE, because tools.jar is actually part of JDK, but JRE not necessarily mean that you have JDK around. So, I' would suggest to set JAVA_HOME to the proper JDK and use {$java.home}/lib/tools.jar path instead. Anyways, please consider to contribute to the project FAQ at http://docs.codehaus.org/display/M2ECLIPSE/Project+FAQEven that's a bad idea because not all JDKs provide a tools.jar... for example the Mac OSX JDK bundles the tools.jar code into the classes.jar You'll need a profile for it at least.
