I am getting the above exception when do maven clean install through eclipse with java 1.7 compiler

But If i change the java compiler to 1.8 its working fine. but i want to deploy this jar in JBoss server which is having the java 1.7 version.

Please help on this. Thanks in Advance.

Answer 1

You should declare your icm prefix in the bindings file.

Add xmlns:icm="<URI of the icm namespace here>" to the root element.

This has less to do with JAXB and more with XML. JAXB expects a "qualified name" as @xmlType. "Qualified name" means the prefix must be defined and point to the correct namespace.
