[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.sonar-plugins:maven-cpp-plugin:0.4:metrics (default-cli
) on project ConnectJet: Execution default-cli of goal org.codehaus.sonar-plugins:maven-cpp-plugin:

org.codehaus.sonar-plugins:maven-cpp-plugin:0.4:metrics: java.lang.LinkageError: JAXB 2.0 API is being loaded from the bootstrap classloader,   
but this RI (from jar:file:/C:/Users/Renjith.R/.m2/repository/com/sun/xml/bind/j
axb-impl/2.1.12/jaxb-impl-2.1.12.jar!/com/sun/xml/bind/v2/model   
/impl/ModelBuilder.class) needs 2.1
API. Use the endorsed directory mechanism to place jaxb-api.jar in the bootstrap   
classloader. (See http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/standards/)

Thanks in Advance Renjith.R

    The problem is likely due to conflicting version of the jaxb API provided by java and required by sonar.

    Place 'jaxb-api.jarin theendorsed` directory as instructex in the error message.
