When trying to use the Generic Authority Connector
(org.apache.manifoldcf.authorities.authorities.generic.GenericAuthority) we
experienced some problems:
Line 681 (context = JAXBContext.newInstance(Auth.class);) results in an error:
javax.xml.bind.JAXBException: Implementation of JAXB-API has not been found on
module path or classpath.

We are using JDK 11 as our runtime envirnoment. As far as i understood, support
for jaxb was removed in JDK 11. So my question is, does anybody know a
workaround for this problem (adding jaxb libs manually?) or are there any plans
to upgrade the GenericAuthority Connector to JDK 11 (jakarta.xml.bind).
Kind Regards,
Uwe
