Answer 1

You are showing Maven pom.xml and mentioned getting error with gradle-jooq-plugin.

If you are using Maven then the class org.jooq.util.jaxb.tools.XMLAppendable is there in org.jooq:jooq:3.12.3 which is already added to classpath by adding spring-boot-starter-jooq.

I made the following modifications and code generation worked fine:

• Rename org.jooq.util.JavaGenerator to org.jooq.codegen.JavaGenerator
• Rename org.jooq.util.h2.H2Database to org.jooq.meta.h2.H2Database
• Rename org.jooq.util.mysql.MySQLDatabase to org.jooq.meta.mysql.MySQLDatabase

Please add this depdendency.

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.jooq</groupId>
  <artifactId>jooq</artifactId>
  <version>3.12.3</version>
</dependency>

Note :: Please give the version as per other jooq dependencies
