>             Project: Maven Eclipse Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Core : Dependencies resolution and build path (.classpath)
>         Environment: All.
>            Reporter: Parag Mehta
>
> Classpath generated by eclipse:eclipse contains absolute reference to the jdk being used
> <classpathentry kind="lib" path="C:/app/Java/jdk1.5.0_11/lib/tools.jar"/>
> This creates a classpath that is not portable amongst multiple machines/developers (who may have the jdk installed elsewhere).  Using variables like JAVA_HOME or JDK_HOME would yield a more portable result (like users are expected to define M2_REPO or the plugin can do so).
> <classpathentry kind="lib" path="JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar"/>
> Thanks.
