Working on my 1.6.0_16 JDK, I generated my stub classes from a WSDL using Apache CXF 2.5.2, which uses the most recent jaxb-api 2.2. I know it's possible to have it use jaxb-api 2.1, but in order to avoid compatibility issues, I would rather have it use the current version. Since my JDK features jaxb 2.1, the build fails with the following message:

error at @XmlElementRef(name = "protocol", namespace = "urn:ch.beo.emc", type = JAXBElement.class, required = false)

Therefore, I tried to make maven include the most recent jaxb api and impl using the following dependencies.

<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.5</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb-impl</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.5</version>
</dependency>

While the two jars have been added to Maven Dependencies in Eclipse, the error message persists both in Eclipse and Maven build.

How can I include these jars in my Maven build and have them used both in Eclipse and on the target system?

What's your target artifact? WAR or JAR or EAR?artbristol
It's a JAR, actually. I'm using the maven-jar-plugin and maven-shade-plugin to wrap it all together.Pascal Kesseli
Can you post the plugin configuration from your POM where you're using CXF?nwinkler
I added the complete POM from my project. Note that Maven does not generate the stubs, however, and has no CXF plug-in installed.Pascal Kesseli

I just ran into this issue with jaxb also; goodness do I love Maven (not). Here's how I resolved the problem.

Add the central repo

<repository>
    <id>central</id>
    <url>http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/</url>
</repository>

Modify the version of the api and impl

<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.7-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb-impl</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.5-b10</version>
</dependency>

Add

<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.12</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb-impl</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.11</version>
</dependency>

and

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>central</id>
        <url>http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>

FYI: Both Paul and Do Nhu Vy's answers are correct, but if you encountered error message like below, please change repository to HTTPS:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project hibernate: Could not resolve dependencies for project edu.baylor.cs.se:hibernate:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT: Failed to collect dependencies at javax.xml.bind:jaxb-api:jar:2.2.7: Failed to read artifact descriptor for javax
.xml.bind:jaxb-api:jar:2.2.7: Could not transfer artifact javax.xml.bind:jaxb-api:pom:2.2.7 from/to central (http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/): Transfer failed for http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/javax/xml/bind/jaxb-api/2.2.7/jaxb-api-2.2.7.pom 5
01 HTTPS Required -> [Help 1]

Add those in pom.xml file.

    <repositories>
        <repository>
            <id>central</id>
