Hi David,
I am really sorry. I had totally forgotten about your question.
It's actually very straightforward. The profiles below will select for the
correct version of the tools jar, just by looking for it. Then you just use
that defined property in the dependency.
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun</groupId>
<artifactId>tools</artifactId>
<version>1.6</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>${tools-jar}</systemPath>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>standard-jdk</id>
<activation>
<file>
<exists>${java.home}/../lib/tools.jar</exists>
</file>
</activation>
<properties>
<tools-jar>${java.home}/../lib/tools.jar</tools-jar>
</properties>
</profile>
<profile>
<id>apple-jdk</id>
<activation>
<file>
<exists>${java.home}/../Classes/classes.jar</exists>
</file>
</activation>
<properties>
<tools-jar>${java.home}/../Classes/classes.jar</tools-jar>
</properties>
</profile>
</profiles>
