RuntimeBuiltinLeafInfoImpl cannot be found but it's jar is added to pom.xml

Question

i'm facing a lib problem... i guess i have a lib conflict anywhere but i cannot find it...

What did i do? I upgraded my Hibernate Libs from 4.x to 5.3.1 and switched from Java 8 to Java 10... i also upgraded my Spring libs to 5.0.4-RELEASE.

I found out that hibernate 5.3.1 needs some jaxb dependencies and so i added them but i still got this exception:

Here are the jaxb libs i've added to my pom:

<dependency>
  <groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>
  <artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>
  <version>2.3.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
  <groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
  <artifactId>jaxb-impl</artifactId>
  <version>2.3.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
  <groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
  <artifactId>jaxb-core</artifactId>
  <version>2.3.0</version>
</dependency>

The really strange thing for me is that in jaxb-impl-2.3.0.jar i have found the class RuntimeBuiltinLeafInfoImpl?! So what's the problem?!

Anybody an idea?

Ok... i found the mistake... i missed another dependency... it was hidden in another exception at creating the spring context:

<dependency>
     <groupId>javax.activation</groupId>
     <artifactId>activation</artifactId>
     <version>1.1.1</version>
</dependency>
