I made this answer a while ago where I answered this as an additional info to exposing non java.se packages in Java-9 using Maven.
The added part specifically focusses on using the standalone version of the
java.xml.* APIs. To adapt to which you can probably start consuming the dependency on jaxb-api:2.3.0 which can be loaded as a module and can be executed from the classpath as well. The change you need to make is to add the following to your dependencies list:
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>
<version>2.3.0</version>
</dependency>
This way you ensure migrating to standalone APIs for the module as well as moving away from a deprecated piece of code.
