jaxws-maven-plugin 3.0.0 incompatible with jaxb2-basics

[RomainPruvostMHH]

Hi,

In your example here https://eclipse-ee4j.github.io/metro-jax-ws/jaxws-maven-plugin/examples/using-jaxb-plugins.html, you suggest to use the library org.jvnet.jaxb2_commons:jaxb2-basics to enable xjc-plugins. But it doesn't work because jaxb2-basics is using the ol Jaxb implementation (javax.xml.bind.*). I tested your example and I got this error :

Did you know a solution to generate the toString method without the library org.jvnet.jaxb2_commons:jaxb2-basics ?

kind regards, Romain

Hi: I'm now facing the same issue. Did you ever find a solution? Thanks,

Hello, by searching some info about the jaxws-maven-plugin, found this issue.
You can now use the latest version of jaxb2-basics which is now part of the jaxb-tools repository (former repository of only the maven-jaxb2-plugin)

You can follow the migration guide on how to get the latest version and new groupId/artifactId associated with former versions.

Feel free to contact us if needed 😉
