Description
All the java types generated by JAX-B tools (xjc) must be exported in order to be accessible by JAX-B runtime. This has to be added to documentation (JSR / documentation of tools / javadoc) and if there is an easy solution, it would be good to modify tools in a way that those would generate module-info.java for client module using jaxb.
Comments
The document you are looking for is linked from the main project page (http://openjdk.java.net/projects/jigsaw/), look for "Initial draft JLS and JVMS changes".

Implemented in JAXB standalone following module-info,java grammar as described on http://openjdk.java.net/projects/jigsaw/doc/lang-vm.html Unfortunately it looks like this grammar document is wrong, some lexical elements like '@' <version> are causing compilation errors. We need proper and up to date module info grammar definition from JDK team.
