Solution 1

Adding jaxen to your libraries fixes this problem.

If you disable annotation processing in project properties, it will start working as well, but then you cannot use things like lombok (lombok generates getters/setters/hashcode/constructors on the fly).

Edit: Jaxen was hosted at codehouse, but codehouse is discontinued and jaxen.org is outdated. The link above points to maven repository, I am not sure if there is anything better.

Solution 2

Are you useing Netbeans?

If so, go into the build settings for your project and unckeck "Enable Annotation Processing".

Solution 3

you need this dependency:

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/jaxen/jaxen -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>jaxen</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxen</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.1</version>
</dependency>
