Using the JAX-B standalone,https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/jaxb-ri, seems a bit harder than it probably should be given where we are.
The following command line with the jars on the classpath: —————— java -cp classes/:jars/jaxb-api-2.4.0.jar:jars/jaxb-runtime-2.4.0.jar:jars/jaxb-impl-2.4.0.jar:jars/istack-commons-runtime-3.0.7.jar:jars/javax.activation-api-1.2.0.jar JAXBExample ————————— will work with the following trivial example: ——————— import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlAttribute; import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlElement; import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement; @XmlRootElement public class Customer { String name; int age; int id; public String getName() { return name; } @XmlElement public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; } public int getAge() { return age; } @XmlElement public void setAge(int age) { this.age = age; } public int getId() { return id; } @XmlAttribute public void setId(int id) { this.id = id; } } import java.io.File; import javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext; import javax.xml.bind.JAXBException; import javax.xml.bind.Marshaller; public class JAXBExample { public static void main(String[] args) { Customer customer = new Customer(); customer.setId(100); customer.setName("Lance Andersen"); customer.setAge(29); try { File file = new File("Customer.xml"); JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(Customer.class); Marshaller jaxbMarshaller = jaxbContext.createMarshaller(); // output pretty printed jaxbMarshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, true); jaxbMarshaller.marshal(customer, file); jaxbMarshaller.marshal(customer, System.out); } catch (JAXBException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } —————————— The JAX-B 2.4 documentation could be a bit more helpful https://javaee.github.io/jaxb-v2/doc/user-guide/release-documentation.html#deployment-jaxb-on-jpms :-( HTH Lance > On Feb 11, 2019, at 4:46 PM, Oliver Z. <oliver.zem...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, i am trying to create a java 11 application which reads some .xml and > that should be mapped to a object.
