Java Architecture for XML Binding (JAXB) - Class not found [message #551105]

Hi,

I am looking for some JAXB experts help!

To save some formatted data, I want to use Java Architecture for XML Binding (JAXB). It is my first time and immediately I got some problems.

It doesn't matter, which version of JAXB I use. Everytime, with

JAXBContext.newInstance(Data.class)

I get the following ClassNotFoundException:

javax.xml.bind.JAXBException
- with linked exception:
[java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.xml.internal.bind.v2.ContextFactory]
at javax.xml.bind.ContextFinder.newInstance(ContextFinder.java: 186)
at javax.xml.bind.ContextFinder.find(ContextFinder.java:375)
at javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext.newInstance(JAXBContext.java:618)
at javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext.newInstance(JAXBContext.java:565)

Did somebody got the same problem and fixed it?

Would be glad for answers.

Thx

JAXB is a standard runtime with multiple implementations, just like JPA. There error you are seeing is that the Metro JAXB implementation (the RI) cannot be found.

If you want to use the EclipseLink JAXB (MOXy) implementation simply add the eclipselink.jar to your classpath and add a file named jaxb.properties with the following entry in with your model classes:

javax.xml.bind.context.factory=org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.JAXBContextFactory

If you want to use Metro JAXB it is included in Java SE 6, or can be found at https://jaxb.dev.java.net/

For more information on MOXy see:

Thank you Blaise for your answer.

For testing, I created a new project, which includes all needed jars. This works fine. The xml file is written and readed. But this was a "usual" java application. Smile

Now, the reason why I need help is, that the exception occur in a rcp application.

I include the jars via the manifest -> runtime -> classpath. I also tried to fix it by release this jars into a seperate bundle. But everytime I got this ava.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.xml.internal.bind.v2.ContextFactory]!

... and the class is in the included jars Wink

Is there anybody, who can help?
