The last time I tried, you could not use JAXB 2.4 as a module but that was before it went final.
JAXB has dependencies on JAF so make sure you include that module. If you are still struggling I would follow up on the JAXB dev mailing list https://javaee.groups.io/g/metro for better guidance with JAXB 2.4 The documentation definitely needs some updates to 7.2.2 as it does not even mention JAF or provide a current of example for using the standalone JAXB as a module without upgrading the JDK implementation. Also the release notes do not mention the runtime jar https://javaee.github.io/jaxb-v2/doc/user-guide/ch02.html#jars > On Feb 11, 2019, at 7:03 PM, Oliver Z. <oliver.zem...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Thanks for the documentation link.
