error: package javax.xml.bind.annotation does not exist

[AndyNicholls]

I am trying to build the jar files using ant on windows 10. I am getting the message 'error: package javax.xml.bind.annotation does not exist'. Searching the net indicates this package is no longer shipped with the java SE JDK. I am using ant to build. Stackoverflow suggest adding the --add-modules java.xml.bind compiler option, but I could not get this to work with ant . I have seen some work-arounds by updating the pom.xml file, but I am not using maven.

I also had an issue with log4j not found. I fixed this by adding log4j to the .classpath file.

Apache Ant(TM) version 1.9.15 compiled on May 10 2020 JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-15
