I'm suffering the maven-protoc-plugin issue where os.detected.classifier isn't resolved causing eclipse to report an error in my pom.
I found this fix but I suspect that only works for older eclipse versions, there is no longer a <eclipse>/plugins folder in oxygen.
I've tried setting os.detected.classifier in eclipse.ini and windows environment variables to no avail.
Here's a clip of the pom for those that think it will help..
<build>
<extensions>
<extension>
<groupId>kr.motd.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>os-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.3.0.Final</version>
</extension>
</extensions>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>com.google.protobuf.tools</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-protoc-plugin</artifactId>
<version>0.4.3</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>compile</goal>
And part of the error...
Missing:
----------
1) com.google.protobuf:protoc:exe:${os.detected.classifier}:2.6.1
