Hi Freeman, thanks for the reply. Yes in JDK 11 javax.activation package need to be listed as a dependency. What I'm finding is that there are 2 packages/modules that are requiring javax.activation and if I remove CXF from the dependencies the compiler is not asking for java.activation as a module anymore; this error:
ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler- plugin:3.8.1:compile (default-compile) on project ebinocle-web: Compilation failure [ERROR] module not found: java.activation We have loads of dependencies than I will look if I can reproduce it in a smaller example project. I'm pointing at cxf because looking at mvn dependency:tree I was wondering if it should have jakarta.activation in the tree more than the others activation packages: [INFO] +- org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-frontend-jaxrs:jar:3.3.2:runtime [INFO] | +- org.apache.cxf:cxf-core:jar:3.3.2:compile [INFO] | | +- org.glassfish.jaxb:jaxb-runtime:jar:2.3.1:compile [INFO] | | | +- org.glassfish.jaxb:txw2:jar:2.3.1:compile [INFO] | | | +- com.sun.istack:istack-commons- runtime:jar:3.0.7:compile [INFO] | | | \- com.sun.xml.fastinfoset:FastInfoset:jar:1.2.15:compile [INFO] | | +- com.fasterxml.woodstox:woodstox-core:jar:5.0.3:compile [INFO] | | +- org.apache.ws.xmlschema:xmlschema- core:jar:2.2.4:compile [INFO] | | \- org.glassfish.jaxb:jaxb-xjc:jar:2.3.1:compile [INFO] | | +- org.glassfish.jaxb:xsom:jar:2.3.1:compile [INFO] | | +- org.glassfish.jaxb:codemodel:jar:2.3.1:compile [INFO] | | +- com.sun.xml.bind.external:rngom:jar:2.3.1:compile [INFO] | | +- com.sun.xml.dtd-parser:dtd-parser:jar:1.4:compile [INFO] | | +- com.sun.istack:istack-commons- tools:jar:3.0.7:compile [INFO] | | | \- org.apache.ant:ant:jar:1.10.2:compile [INFO] | | | \- org.apache.ant:ant-launcher:jar:1.10.2:compile [INFO] | | \- com.sun.xml.bind.external:relaxng- datatype:jar:2.3.1:compile [INFO] | +- jakarta.ws.rs:jakarta.ws.rs-api:jar:2.1.5:runtime [INFO] | +- org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-transports-http:jar:3.3.2:runtime [INFO] | +- org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-security:jar:3.3.2:runtime [INFO] | +- javax.xml.ws:jaxws-api:jar:2.3.1:compile [INFO] | | \- javax.xml.soap:javax.xml.soap-api:jar:1.4.0:compile [INFO] | +- com.sun.activation:javax.activation:jar:1.2.0:compile [INFO] | +- org.apache.geronimo.specs:geronimo-ws- metadata_2.0_spec:jar:1.1.3:compile [INFO] | +- com.sun.xml.messaging.saaj:saaj-impl:jar:1.5.0:compile [INFO] | | +- org.jvnet.mimepull:mimepull:jar:1.9.11:compile [INFO] | | \- org.jvnet.staxex:stax-ex:jar:1.8:compile [INFO] | | \- javax.activation:activation:jar:1.1:compile [INFO] | +- org.jacorb:jacorb-omgapi:jar:3.7:compile [INFO] | +- org.apache.geronimo.specs:geronimo- jta_1.1_spec:jar:1.1.1:compile [INFO] | \- org.jboss.spec.javax.rmi:jboss-rmi- api_1.0_spec:jar:1.0.6.Final:compile I will let you know if I'm able to reproduce elsewhere.
