easy-batch-xml package javax.xml.bind doesn't exist

[aaryadewa]

I am following the tutorial in this page. Using java 1.8 (openjdk or zulu) and found error message package javax.xml.bind does not exist.

How to solve this issue?

I am following the tutorial in this page.

The link redirects to the tutorials index page, which tutorial are you referring to?

That error would happen with Java 11 (the version that removed xml from the jdk) but not with Java 8. Are you sure you are using Java 8? How are you running the tutorial?

@aaryadewa Any update on this?

If I'm not mistaken I guess you are referring to the csv to xml tutorial as this is the only tutorial using xml APIs. I tried to follow the same instructions as in the getting started guide in a fresh docker container and the tutorial works as expected:
