jaxb2-maven-plugin throws Exception when maxOccurs is greater than 5000

[Dean Schulze]

When I run the jaxb2-maven-plugin on a legacy xsd it throws this Exception:

Current configuration of the parser doesn't allow a maxOccurs attribute value to be set greater than the value 5,000

Googling this error shows that this is a limit that was put on jaxp for security purposes.  It can be disabled in code like this

SAXParserFactory spf = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
spf.setFeature(XMLConstants.FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING,false);




I can't change the xsd.  How do I disable this when calling running the jaxb2-maven-plugin?

Hm.

That may be a workaround to your problem, but I find it rather un-intuitive.

As a minimum, we should document this solution in the plugin's site doc.

According to [1], another possibility might be to set the system property

jdk.xml.maxOccurLimit=0
