Description

I want to use JAXB 2.2.1 to benefit from a JAXB bug fix but I am having problems getting CXF to recognize it is there.

All is well when we use JAXB 2.1.13.

I followed the instructions here to use JAXB on top of Java 6: https://jaxb.dev.java.net/guide/Migrating_JAXB_2_0_applications_to_JavaSE_6.html

I think the problem is the way CXF detects the JAXB version in DynamicClientFactory#isJaxb21(SchemaCompiler).

The implementation fails to see JAXB 2.2.1 because the build id is not in the expected format: hudson-jaxb-ri-2.2-7

Has anyone else run into this issue? I am using a CXF 2.2.10 snapshot build to work around CXF 2.2.9 bug CXF-2900.

My details:
