Local jars are not included in class path (`system`)

Question

I am trying to build my application using maven and eclipse. I have dependencies on 3rd party jars which are on my local machine. here is my pom.xml

Just a thing that hit my eye: In the path you are using the normal unix-style slashes /. Windows uses backslashes for paths: . I do not know if maven is able to convert those into each other, so maybe try and enter the path as follows:

C:\gelcap\lib\zipdiff-0.4.jar
