[Tom Huybrechts]

Have you tried putting both configurations in a profile ?

I have a project with a plugin that depends on tools.jar. That jar doesn't
exist on the mac, so I'm trying to use profiles to change that dependency
when running on OSX. I think the pom I wrote below should work, but it
doesn't. What am i missing?
 (The profile is shown as active running help:active-profiles)

thanks for your time

Here's a snippet of the pom:

<project>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
    <executions>
    ...
    </executions>
    <dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <!-- Required to use javac -->
        <groupId>sun.jdk</groupId>
        <artifactId>tools</artifactId>
        <version>1.5</version>
        <scope>system</scope>
        <systemPath>${java.home}/../lib/tools.jar</systemPath>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>

<profiles>
      <profile>
            <id>macfixfortools</id>
            <activation>
                <os>
                      <family>OSX</family>
                 </os>
            </activation>
            <build>
            <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
                <dependencies>
                <dependency>
                    <!-- Required to use javac -->
                    <groupId>sun.jdk</groupId>
                    <artifactId>tools</artifactId>

                    <scope>system</scope>
                    <systemPath>${java.home
}/../Classes/classes.jar</systemPath>
                </dependency>
            </dependencies>
            </plugin>
            </plugins>
            </build>
      </profile>
</profiles>
