Maven native plugin and JNI

Hi everyone!
I'm in a bit of a problem here:
I have to make a maven project for native (jni & C) code.

I am using this plugin: http://mojo.codehaus.org/maven-nativ...gin/index.html

and trying to make this example build:
http://mojo.codehaus.org/maven-nativ...s/jni-dll.html
(the jni one in svn)

The profile is win32 and MSVC is the compiler provider.

I get the following error:

Anybody seen anything like this?

Not knowing Maven the error diagnostic indicates to me that you haven't properly
installed Maven or forgot to set some (class)path variable for it. Check its
installation instructions. The error diagnostic indicates that it can't find one of its
own components.

kind regards,

Jos

Yeah, it does look like that, but it's a plugin and maven is pretty much just a bunch of plugins doing stuff.
The installation of the plugin is automated and instructed by POM, and i've literally copied the example from the repository and it breaks there.
I'am trying stuff, but it just wont click.

Thanks anyway!

Ok, so just in case anybody comes across this looking for an answer, I did it, and this is how:

in win32 pom, i've added -LD to <compilerStartOptions> and i gave up on IDEs, just did it from console...
Also I've added user32.lib & advapi32.lib to linkerStartOption (like in the tutorial)
There may have been more changes on my part, but I can't remember all now, and I think these were the key ones.
At first it didn't go, but when I logged on a few hours later it worked without any change. Oh the joy!
