opendata depends on outdated Java EE modules

[james2432]

opendata plugin depends on javax.xml.bind and is no longer in Java9 and completely removed in Java 11. The only way to get around it in Java9 is to launch it with:

java -jar --add-modules java.xml.bind josm-latest.jar

As it is no longer in the default class path location

Java 9 EOL is outdated for a long time. Please update to Java 11 and the plugin should work like a charm, as we now ship a JAXB plugin.

Still happens in openjdk 11.0.1
but am unable to do the add modules work around.

created #16887 as you hastily closed this one and still affects java 11.
