----------------------------------------

             Summary: sun.misc.Unsafe accessible in Sling Starter 12
                 Key: SLING-9824
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-9824
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Starter
    Affects Versions: Starter 12
         Environment: Sling-Starter 12-SNAPSHOT (commit addb8f7b) with JDK 11 
and 13 on MacOS, JDK 11 on an x86_64 Linux
            Reporter: Hans-Peter Stoerr


We are having some trouble running our application on [the current Sling 
Starter 12 
snapshot|https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-starter/tree/addb8f7ba16dfb2ab6cda1a70f98a461a7cacb7a]
 since we are using ehache 3, which uses sun.misc.Unsafe internally. This works 
with Sling Starter 11, but since Sling Starter changed to the feature launcher, 
this class seems to have disappeared from the classpath: the class loading of 
ehcache classes fails with a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: sun/misc/Unsafe

I tried to add command line arguments
 --add-modules=jdk.unsupported
 and
 --add-opens=jdk.unsupported/sun.misc=ALL-UNNAMED
 to the launcher command line, as I've seen that suggested on the net for 
similar problems, but it didn't help.
 In fact, this doesn't seem to be the problem: even without those flags the 
jdk.unsupported module does export sun.misc:

module

{ name: [email protected], [mandated java.base], exports: 
[com.sun.nio.file, sun.misc, sun.reflect], opens: [sun.misc, sun.reflect] }

So it seems the module is loaded, but not used to load the class.

The easiest way to reproduce the problem is to add this to some JSP:
 <%
 Class clazz = sun.misc.Unsafe.class;
 %>
 In case that matters: I tried JDK 11 and 13 on MacOS, as well as JDK 11 on an 
x86_64 Linux.
 This works on Sling Starter 11, but not the current 12 snapshot.

The workaround to add 
 {{-D org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extra=sun.misc}}
 to the command line, which was thankfully suggested [in the mailing 
list|https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg05423.html], does 
work. But I feel it is not a particularily clean solution. It also does 
something else than what happens on Sling Starter 11 : now the sun.misc package 
is listed in the exports list of the felix framework bundle 
 [http://localhost:9090/system/console/bundles/0] . Not sure whether this is 
good or bad.
