Creating an instance of Leadtools's AutoFormsEngine in Java

Question

I'm trying to use the Leadtools's "Forms Recognition and Processing SDK" in a Java application. I have no problem creating an instance of RasterCodecs, OcrEngine (OcrEngineManager.createEngine), BarcodeEngine and DiskMasterFormsRepository. The last thing that I need to create is an instance of AutoFormsEngine, but I get the exception below.

leadtools.RasterException: javax/xml/bind/DatatypeConverter

I found the solution myself. Apparently Leadtolls will not work with Java SDK 14 and that is what I was using. I downgraded to Java SDK 8 and it worked.
