jimma commented on issue #365: [CXF-7520]:Ensure CXF can build with JDK9 GA(build 9+181) URL: https://github.com/apache/cxf/pull/365#issuecomment-357147535 > The deps are scope=provided so they shouldn't affect anyone downstream as they won't be pulled in. Thus, the profile is likely not needed. > > HOWEVER, there is an issue at runtime if the com.sun.xml.bind.marshaller.CharacterEscapeHandler class is not found (example: using in JDK version of jaxb instead of the jar), then the writer won't be createable at all and everything will fail. @dkulp I saw the provided scope is set in cxf-core, so I set the same thing. I think this can allow downstream to use the jaxb version from the place like tomcat container lib or user provided a higher jaxb version than 2.2.11 to quickly pick up some jaxb issue fix. But it looks currently cxf can't compile or run with JDK's jaxb version because cxf core already depends on jaxb impl class NamespacePrefixMapper : https://github.com/apache/cxf/blob/master/core/src/main/java/org/apache/cxf/common/jaxb/NamespaceMapper.java
