I go to:

https://javaee.github.io/jaxb-v2/

Download:

https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/sun/xml/bind/jaxb-ri/2.3.1/jaxb-ri-2.3.1.zip

Unzip.

Add all jar files in the mod dir to classpath.

And my JAXB example works.

Actually I did only need:

istack-commons-runtime.jar
javax.activation-api.jar
jaxb-api.jar
jaxb-runtime.jar

But OK that is only version 2.3.1.

Let me see if I can find 2.3.2 as well.
