I've just been looking through the core pom.xml in HEAD and noticed this; <profile> <id>default-tools.jar</id> <activation> <property> <name>java.vendor</name> <value>Sun Microsystems Inc.</value> </property> </activation> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>com.sun</groupId> <artifactId>tools</artifactId> <version>1.5.0</version> <scope>system</scope> <systemPath>${java.home}/../lib/tools.jar</systemPath> </dependency> </dependencies> </profile>
Sun have announced 1.5 is now in it's end of life transition period (see http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp), so should we bump this to 6.0, or if we don't actually need tools.jar maybe remove it? Al.
