Brian Schack updated LANG-1383:
-------------------------------
Description:
ReflectionToStringBuilder::toString prints an illegal access warning to
System.err. The warning suggests to report this issue to the Apache Commons
maintainers.
Boolean.TRUE is such a simple value that I don't really need
ReflectionToStringBuilder. But more complex types (such as HashMap) print the
same warning. I chose Boolean.TRUE in order to simplify this example.
When I searched for this warning message, I found a StackOverflow answer which
suggested to report it to the package maintainers ([JDK9: An illegal reflective
access operation has occurred.
org.python.core.PySystemState|https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46230413/jdk9-an-illegal-reflective-access-operation-has-occurred-org-python-core-pysys/46230678]).
I also asked my own StackOverflow question about how to throw an exception for
this warning ([How can I throw an exception for an illegal reflective access
warning?|https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49076972/how-can-i-throw-an-exception-for-an-illegal-reflective-access-warning]).
I will try to change my code to avoid this warning, but it also seems that
Apache Commons should not cause the warning. Perhaps it could use different
methods to get the values of the fields, or skip the private fields, or throw
an exception? The warning message suggests that the Java maintainers want the
Apache Commons maintainers to avoid this warning. And when they disable this
illegal access in the future, then it could impact Apache Commons.
Code:
{{import org.apache.commons.lang3.builder.*;}}
{{class Test {}}
{{public static void main(String[] args) {}}
{{System.out.println(ReflectionToStringBuilder.toString(Boolean.TRUE));}}
{{}}}
{{}}}
Output:
{{WARNING: An illegal reflective access operation has occurred}}
