Unable to import javax.jws.webservice for @WebService annotation

I am working on Eclipse IDE and creating a web-service program. IDE gives an error while importing import javax.jws.WebService; import javax.jws.WebMethod; error shows the import javax.jws can not be resolved

import javax.jws.WebService;
import javax.jws.WebMethod;

@WebService
public class Hello {
    private final String message = "Hello, ";

    public Hello() {
    }

    @WebMethod
    public String sayHello(String name) {
        return message + name + ".";
    }
}

in the pom.xml file add

<dependency>
  <groupId>javax.jws</groupId>
  <artifactId>javax.jws-api</artifactId>
  <version>1.1</version>
</dependency>

Use javax.jws-api artifact instead and it will solve your problem. Below is the gradle implementation:

implementation 'javax.jws:javax.jws-api:1.1'

Check the version and use the latest.

It is not recommended to downgrade the Java version just to fix the issue.

Check that your project has appropriate JDK.

Right click on the project --> Properties --> Compiler

I created your file in Java8, and it worked.
