XML-api.jar and org.xml.sax classes having issues with JAVA 11

[![enter image description here][1]][1]I am getting compilation error for classes refer to org.xml.sax and xml-apis using Eclipse 2019-03 and OpenJDK 11. I have deleted any maven dependency to xml-apis though it still shows in Maven repository and listed in Maven dependecies. I have set Maven dependencies before JDK in Order & export of project build path and vice versa but with no hope. 

import org.xml.sax.*;
import org.xml.sax.ext.*;
import org.xml.sax.helpers.XMLReaderFactory;
import org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler;

I had to add the update here because of comment limited length:

Yes, I did checked Maven dependency hierarchy and found that Maven dependency 

            <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
            <artifactId>hibernate-annotations</artifactId>
            <version>3.5.6-Final</version>
        </dependency> --> AND <!-- <dependency>
            <groupId>xerces</groupId>
            <artifactId>xercesImpl</artifactId>
            <version>2.9.1</version>
        </dependency> --> ```
includes xml-apis, I have commented that out both dependencies, but then I got compilation error to a class that refers to "org.apache.xerces.parsers.DOMParser" that I have to uncomment "xerces" dependency again and of course same problem happening because JDK have the classpath for java.xml which includes "org.w3.dom" and "rg.xml.sax"

after checking Maven dependency hierarchy of pom file as suggested by @howlger I was able to find xerces has dependency on xml-apis, after excluding it, worked fine.

<dependency>
            <groupId>xerces</groupId>
            <artifactId>xercesImpl</artifactId>
            <version>2.9.1</version>
            <exclusions>
            <exclusion>
            <groupId>xml-apis</groupId>
            <artifactId>xml-apis</artifactId>
            </exclusion>
            </exclusions>
        </dependency>
