Thomas Mortagne commented on VELOCITY-984:
------------------------------------------
Indeed, I can reproduce the error you have with the test you provided when
building Velocity with Java 21. I think this is simply because
AbstractStringBuilder is package protected (which is not the case of
StringBuilder).
[~cbrisson] I feel like the logic of getTopMostMethodDeclaration should be
modified a bit to stop at the first accessible method (so more of a
getAccessibleMethodDeclaration) instead of always going all the way to the top,
like I did in
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-commons/blob/xwiki-commons-15.10/xwiki-commons-core/xwiki-commons-velocity/src/main/java/org/xwiki/velocity/introspection/MethodOverrideUberspector.java.
It should cover problems like this (and it means stopping earlier in most
cases, which is probably better for performances)

> Key: VELOCITY-984
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-984
> Project: Velocity
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Engine
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Reporter: Christoph Lenggenhager
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: Velocity952TestCase.java
>
>
> With the changes introduced in VELOCITY-952, our templates fail with an
> IllegalAccessException.
> The exception is caused by a template that has a variable of type
> StringBuilder and calls append on it. The introduced changes choose the
> implementation of the method of AbstractStringBuilder to be executed, which
> leads to the mentioned IllegalAccessExceptions.
> I've attached an extended version of Velocity952TestCase.java that reproduces
> the problem with an additional test.
