Hi Russ,
Thanks for the info!
Unfortunately I had tried something similar before, and it doesn't work.
I added the profile section, declared the plugin as follows:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>cobertura-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.6</version>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun</groupId>
<artifactId>tools</artifactId>
<version>1.6</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>${tools-jar}</systemPath>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</plugin>
I still get the following error:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project enstratius-backend-server: Could
not resolve dependencies for project
com.enstratius:enstratius-backend-server:jar:j.0-pre1-SNAPSHOT: Could not
find artifact com.sun:tools:jar:0 at specified path
/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home/../lib/tools.jar
-> [Help 1]
I'm guessing that because cobertura itself declares a profile, is mine not
overriding it (see my reply on Aug 29)
cheers,
David
