[m2e-users] How to do something like "os-maven-plugin" that works with m

["KARR, DAVID" <dk068x@xxxxxxx>]

I'm looking at a project with a dependency like this:
---------------------
		<dependency>
			<groupId>io.netty</groupId>
			<artifactId>netty-tcnative</artifactId>
			<version>2.0.20.Final</version>
			<classifier>${os.detected.classifier}</classifier>
			<scope>runtime</scope>
		</dependency>
----------------

That "os.detected.classifier" property is generated at build time with this:
---------------
			<extension>
				<groupId>kr.motd.maven</groupId>
				<artifactId>os-maven-plugin</artifactId>
				<version>1.5.0.Final</version>
			</extension>
---------------

This works fine from the command line.  In Eclipse, this fails with errors indicating that "${os.detected.classifier}" doesn't get populated with a value.

Is there a reasonable strategy for moving this forward?  Is there a different way of determining the platform classifier that is more compatible with m2e?
