Plugin fails to build on Mac OS
-------------------------------

                 Key: MCHECKSTYLE-156
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-156
             Project: Maven 2.x Checkstyle Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.6
         Environment: Mac OS X 10.6.6, java version "1.6.0_22"
            Reporter: Lukas Theussl


Trying to build the plugin on Mac fails:

{noformat}
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project maven-checkstyle-plugin: Could not 
resolve dependencies for project 
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-checkstyle-plugin:maven-plugin:2.7-SNAPSHOT: 
Could not find artifact com.sun:tools:jar:1.5.0 at specified path 
/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home/../lib/tools.jar
 -> [Help 1]
{noformat}

The reason is apparently that the [checkstyle 
pom|http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/puppycrawl/tools/checkstyle/5.3/checkstyle-5.3.pom]
 declares a system dependency

{code:xml}
<dependency>
  <groupId>com.sun</groupId>
  <artifactId>tools</artifactId>
  <version>1.5.0</version>
  <scope>system</scope>
  <systemPath>${java.home}/../lib/tools.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>
{code}

which does not exist on Mac. On Mac OS, the tools.jar classes are included in 
classes.jar. There's no need for a systemPath dependency on Mac OS, all 
required classes are already in the runtime classes.jar.
