jibx marshalling with hibernate 5

Question

We are upgrading our tech stack from hibernate 5(from v3) and spring boot 1.5, particularly facing issues with hibernate and jibx marshalling when we use same domain objects for both hibernate and jibx marshalling.

def compileJibx() {
    ant {
        taskdef(name: 'bind',
            classname: 'org.jibx.binding.ant.CompileTask',
            classpath: configurations.jibx.asPath)

        bind(binding: "${projectDir}/src/main/resources/jibx-binding.xml", verbose: 'false') {
            classpath {
                pathelement(path: "${projectDir}/build/classes/main")
            }
        }
}
}

This jibx compilation task executes after compileJava step.

Using below dependencies

    jibx group: 'org.apache.bcel', name: 'bcel', version:'6.0'
    jibx group: 'org.jibx', name: 'jibx-run', version:'1.1.5'
    jibx group: 'org.jibx', name: 'jibx-extras', version:'1.1.5'
    jibx group: 'org.jibx', name: 'jibx-bind', version:'1.1.5'
    jibx group: 'xmlpull', name: 'xmlpull', version:'1.1.4'
    jibx group: 'xpp3', name: 'xpp3', version:'1.1.4c'
    jibx group: 'org.hibernate.javax.persistence', name: 'hibernate-jpa-2.1-api', version:'1.0.2.Final'
    jibx group: 'javax.xml.bind', name: 'jaxb-api', version:'2.2.11'

After the gradle build I see jibx classes are properly constructed in jar file. But when I start the application, jibx marshalling failed due to below errors.

Is there any issue with my compile or build step? Can someone provide some working example which works well with below stack.

Spring boot 1.5, Hibernate 5, Jibx 1.15, Java8

Answer 1

I have fixed this with upgraded versions of bcel/jibx.

bcel-6.1
jibx-1.3.1
