Error while compiling groovy code with java 11

I am trying to compile groovy code with java 11 and getting the below error:
org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.1:compile (default-compile) on project xml: Compilation failure
Found 0 errors and 0 warnings
The same is working fine with java 8.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
This is the POM file being used.
I have updated the pom file with latest groovy versions i.e., 3.0.7 and the maven compiler version is 3.8.1

How to configure pom files and TeamCity to build dependent modules in maven java project?

I have project which consists from two modules. One of them considered to be main. So the second depends on first. Also I should generate javadoc jar files for modules. The output should be four .jar files: 2 module jar files and two javadoc jar files.
Locally, to generate both jar files I should repeat these step several times (I don't know why):
Build first one and install to local maven repository.
Then I can build second one.
Without installation of first modules I can't achieve packaging phase, because when I test second module it cannot find first module jar file.
Could I do all of these steps by one build process?

You just call mvn clean install on the parent project. It will build both modules in the right order.

I found solution. The error was received because mainmod module was accessible for secondmod module only for test scope <scope>test</scope>. Then I added new dependency with same artifactId, groupId and version, but assigned compile scope. Of course, it shows me warning about repeatition. However, it solves the problem.
Thanks for all!

UberJar doesn't work: Intellij Maven java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError with Jackson YAML

I'm trying to run a very simple program, which requires a class in runtime:
import com.fasterxml.jackson.dataformat.yaml.YAMLFactory;
public class App {
public static void main(String[] args) {
YAMLFactory yf = new YAMLFactory();
}
}
It's getting compiled, but I get
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/fasterxml/jackson/dataformat/yaml/YAMLFactory
at App.main(App.java:6)
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.fasterxml.jackson.dataformat.yaml.YAMLFactory
running the jar.
I use both maven-assembly-plugin and maven-shade-plugin to include dependencies to the jar, both none of them are working for me.

You can configure your maven assembly plugin like this (you do not need the other plugin).
This will put all the .class files in your jar.
mvn clean install to generate your jar and then java -jar target/yourJar-jar-with-dependencies.jar to execute.
For more details check http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/
I leave you an improved pom file for maven 3 (actually the problem was with the pluginManagement tag which is not available on this version of maven).
You also do not need the maven jar plugin.
Please find both schemas for full details

When I run:
mvn clean package -X
I do not see any errors, or at least nothing catches my eye, but there are absolutely no java classes generated. I trying to figure out what the problem is, but haven't been able to because of the lack of examples/documentations. I can switch to JAXB, but that is not an option. I have to stick to XMLBeans.

You only configured the plugins in <pluginManagement>. You need to also declare them in the <plugins> section (outside pluginManagement) so that they become part of your build.

Maven 'forget' classes it generated in previous 'package' command

I quite stuck with something I think is basic, but Maven does not enable me to package my project twice without doing some cleaning.
I'm working on a java project with multi-dependencies (different modules developped by different people, usual stuff) and one of them uses java classes generated using JAXB.
I'm using maven to make all that work together (one pom per module and one pom parent to built the whole project, basic stuff I said).
When I package the modules using dedicated pom there is no trouble (even if I do several successive package without cleaning). When I package the whole project for the first time (or after a clean) there is no problem at all too (*.java generated from XSDs, *.class, tests executed, Jar generated properly).
But now, if I re-do the package command, then maven says that it cannot find the classes generated using JAXB (and, then there are compilation issues in other java classes due to symbols that cannot be found, logic).
I think that Maven kind of "forgot" that it generated java classes during previous package but I don't know how to make it remember. So, up to now, I'm obliged to make it generate those classes and delete them, again and again (and its quite long as the clean cleans every other modules that will then be built again...).
So, if anyone has any clue on what I'm missing/doing wrong, I would be glad as none of my search here and there were successful.
I hope that I was clear enough. If not, feel free to ask for further explanation.
Thank you
P.S. I forgot to tell you that I'm using Maven with command line
