Could not find artifact com.sun:tools:jar:1.0.0 at specified path C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-17.0.5/../lib/tools.jar

Question

I'm trying to use evosuit maven plugin(1.0.6) to generate unit tests for my spring boot application. I have followed the official documentation at https://www.evosuite.org/documentation/maven-plugin/. Searching on the web I went to discover that tools.jar has been removed from JDK 9.

So question is: how can I do without this jar file? Downgrade to java 8 is not an option.

I also tried latest version of the evosuite plugin (1.2.0), but I receive this errors: Unresolved dependency: 'org.evosuite:evosuite-standalone-runtime:jar:1.2.0' Unresolved plugin: 'org.evosuite.plugins:evosuite-maven-plugin:1.2.0'

This is part of my pom.xml file:

                </execution>
            </executions>
        </plugin>

This is the maven command i use to generate unit tests: mvn evosuite:generate evosuite:export

Thanks in advance for your help!
