I am trying to migrate a project from Java8 into Java9 but I am running into the run time exception below, I tried every possible solution suggested by the Stack-overflow community and other blogs but nothing solved the problem, I might be missing something in the pom file that I am not aware of or missing something in the arguments that need to be passed maven-compiler-plugin
Exception
Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'validator' defined in com.test-java9.content.config.ValidationConfiguration: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.sun.xml.bind.v2.model.impl.RuntimeBuiltinLeafInfoImpl

POM File I have the below dependencies available
<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>
And I am passing the needed parameters to the maven-plugin-compiler
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.7.0</version>
<configuration>
<source>${java.version}</source>
<target>${java.version}</target>
<showWarnings>true</showWarnings>
<showDeprecation>true</showDeprecation>
<compilerArgs>
<arg>--add-modules=java.xml.bind</arg>
<arg>--add-opens=java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED --illegal-access=deny</arg>
</compilerArgs>
<!-- without forking compilation happens in the
same process, so no arguments are applied -->
<fork>true</fork>
</configuration>
</plugin>
I also created the jvm.config file under the project directory as per some recommendations
--add-modules java.xml.bind
--add-opens java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED
--illegal-access=deny
When migrating our web project to Java 11 we had to add jaxb
and javax.annotations
to prevent ClassNotFoundException
. Added the following libaries as additional Maven dependencies to our POMs:
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.annotation</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.annotation-api</artifactId>
<version>1.3.2</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>
<version>2.4.0-b180725.0427</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.glassfish.jaxb</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxb-runtime</artifactId>
<version>2.4.0-b180725.0644</version>
</dependency>
I added the below configuration to maven-surefire-plugin to run tests with the needed parameters, It seems that surefire does not get the needed parameters when it forks.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<forkMode>always</forkMode>
<argLine>--add-modules java.xml.bind</argLine>
<argLine>--add-modules java.activation</argLine>
<argLine>--add-opens=java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED --illegal-access=deny</argLine>
</configuration>
</plugin>
