[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JBEE-191) JAXB API loading default impl fails in Java 9

[David Lloyd (JIRA)]

David Lloyd resolved JBEE-191.
------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix


This doesn't need fixing.  The platform JAXB provider can never be accessible from a non-platform API, so it's going to fail regardless.  The correct fix is to ensure that the implementation is always on the API classpath no matter what.

> The platform default provider is instantiated with a null class loader, which is not likely to work since the JDK will be linking against the wrong API.  In addition, these classes are private in Java 9+ so even if it did link correctly, the instantiation would fail due to the non-exported package.
