I am curious if the approach utilising sun.misc.Unsafe discussed in this stack overflow thread has been considered? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46454995/how-to-hide-warning-illegal-reflective-access-in-java-9-without-jvm-argument It's definitely a hack and may not work on all JVMs or in the future. Nonetheless, I still consider it superior to having these warnings emitted, and it fairly cleanly just turns off logging of these messages. The main downside is it turns them off globally so non-groovy related warnings and maybe other messages of interest from the same logger would also not be emitted. Cheers, Simon
