Ok, I checked this with some more tests playing around with versions. During these test I fall back in a state where the count of occurrence of errors differs again. Well, after digging some more, I think, I know now whats going wrong. Looks like I was trapped because of an old doctrine: Never use space charaters in paths! Maven do everthing well, don't care if I added the surefire snipplet or not. But eclipse don't do. So further discussions goes to another list. ;) If someone else is interested, I posted a bug-report at eclipse bugzilla (ID 385223). It can be found here: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=385223 >> 2.

That's what I am looking for and it works perfect after a little tweaking and customizing. And for those guys, that reached this thread to get a solution for the I/O problem, which wasn't part of this thread, should take a look at package java.nio.file. It is available since 1.7.
