Hi all,

I have my JAVA_HOME set to

C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_18

After I run maven install I get this message from eclipse:

Reason:

Unable to locate the Javac Compiler in:
  C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\..\lib\tools.jar
Please ensure you are using JDK 1.4 or above and
not a JRE (the com.sun.tools.javac.Main class is required).
In most cases you can change the location of your Java
installation by setting the JAVA_HOME environment variable.

I'm certain that this is the tricky part

Please ensure you are using JDK 1.4 or above and not a JRE

When I run configuration its set to JRE6, how do I change it to JDK 1.6 which I have already installed

EDIT

I even tried to modify the plugin :

<plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.0.2</version>
                <configuration>
                    <source>1.6</source>
                    <target>1.6</target>
                    <executable>C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_18\bin</executable>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>

Still I get the same error

Maybe I forgot to say I use eclipse maven plugin .. how can I change from JRE to JDK in eclipse ?
