Error when using XmlBeans generated classes

Question

Answer 1

In your generated jar file make sure you have included the class files generated from your xmlbeans.

From the stacktrace :

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: schemaorg_apache_xmlbeans.system.s8
B21CFFFCFED0B2438C2585C61F113F7.TypeSystemHolder

it suggests that during compile time the required class files are in classpath but in your built jar these files are missing.

Check your jar file to see if these classes are present.

EDIT: As per question rephrased

For building jar with dependecies in Maven use jar-with-dependencies option, example

Two very good reference :

1. http://www.sonatype.com/books/mvnref-book/reference/assemblies-sect-basics.html

2. http://thomassundberg.wordpress.com/2011/03/05/create-an-executable-jar-from-maven/

In the second one you don't need a main class if your jar is not an executable jar
