FYI, after pursuing as IBM Java issue, it now appears to be an issue with a 
3rd-party agent installed to the JVM, and am pursuing with them.

At the suggestion of some IBM Java folks, I opened an issue at

But freemarker claims "Java method "AbstractCollection.size()" threw an
exception when invoked on LinkedHashMap$LinkedKeySet object "[]"; see
cause exception in the Java stack trace" and Java stack trace in JSP
exception says "Caused by: java.lang.AbstractMethodError:
java/util/AbstractCollection.size()I". Maybe that JSP exception isn't
for that freemarker exception but it's an unlikely guess from me.

Maybe. I see freemarker search superclasses for methods because class
LinkedHashMap$LinkedKeySet is private. I'm not sure or check if it
always find more specific method!

I'm not sure if I misunderstood the threading here, or just missed this test 
case, but this one does seem to run the same on IBM Java 8:

java TestForStruts2
COPY ME 1: class java.util.LinkedHashMap$LinkedKeySet
COPY ME 2: public abstract int java.util.AbstractCollection.size()
COPY ME 3: 0

I do have some IBM Java folks able to look at the issue, BTW. At least one of 
them pointed at this a potentially related, but beyond me to know if it could 
be:

It seems IBM JDK 8 has different behavior than Oracle or OpenJDK 8. Your
exception claims that JDK is not able to call abstract method size on
LinkedKeySet but here, Oracle and OpenJDK 8 are able to run:

LinkedHashMap lhm = new LinkedHashMap();
Object ks = LinkedHashMap.class.getMethod("keySet").invoke(lhm);
System.out.println("COPY ME 1: " + ks.getClass());
Method m = AbstractCollection.class.getMethod("size");
System.out.println("COPY ME 2: " + m);
Object s = m.invoke(ks);
System.out.println("COPY ME 3: " + s);

They prints:

COPY ME 1: class java.util.LinkedHashMap$LinkedKeySet
COPY ME 2: public abstract int java.util.AbstractCollection.size()
COPY ME 3: 0

which means they're able! I don't know if IBM violates Java
Specification here or Oracle and OpenJDK do. Are you able to ask IBM why
above piece of code fails on their JDK 8 and pass on 7?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks. Sorry, for last one, could you check:

java.util.Map lhm = new java.util.LinkedHashMap<>();
Class c = lhm.getClass();
java.lang.reflect.Method m = c.getMethod("keySet");
Object ks = m.invoke(lhm);
Class c2 = ks.getClass();
java.lang.reflect.Method m2 = c2.getMethod("size");
System.out.println("COPY ME 1: " + m2);
Object s = m2.invoke(ks);
System.out.println("COPY ME 2: " + s);

and if were successful, then check in your action method if:

java.util.Map lhm = this.getFieldErrors()
Class c = lhm.getClass();
java.lang.reflect.Method m = c.getMethod("keySet");
Object ks = m.invoke(lhm);
Class c2 = ks.getClass();
java.lang.reflect.Method m2 = c2.getMethod("size");
System.out.println("COPY ME 1: " + m2);
Object s = m2.invoke(ks);
System.out.println("COPY ME 2: " + s);

is also successful.

Sorry. Could you please check this updated one which is OK here:

  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
  {
java.util.Map lhm = new java.util.LinkedHashMap<>();
Class c = lhm.getClass();
java.lang.reflect.Method m = c.getMethod("keySet");
Object ks = m.invoke(lhm);
java.lang.reflect.Method m2 = m.getReturnType().getMethod("size");
System.out.println("COPY ME 1: " + m2);
Object s = m2.invoke(ks);
System.out.println("COPY ME 2: " + s);
  }

then reply back COPY MEs values please. Here I get:

COPY ME 1: public abstract int java.util.Set.size()
COPY ME 2: 0

That actually produces a compile error:

converted to Class
Class c = lhm.getClass();
   ^
  where CAP#1 is a fresh type-variable:

Thanks. Could you also check if your IBM JDK 8 is able to run this:

java.util.Map lhm = new
java.util.LinkedHashMap<>();
Class c = lhm.getClass();
Method m = c.getMethod("keySet");
Object ks = m.invoke(lhm);
Method m2 = m.getReturnType().getMethod("size");

This is the latest IBM JDK 8. Or at least the latest that works with our 
version WebSphere, but it's very recent. The build date is 20180214. And this 
WebSphere cannot use Oracle or OpenJDK.

to check also with Oracle and OpenJDK 8?

Yes, sorry. 

I did not try the latest Freemarker, I'm using what is packaged with Struts 
(min-lib.zip). Which, even at the very latest 2.5.16, is apparently 
2.3.26-incubating. I assumed that whatever is packaged with Struts is what is 
tested and "supported" with it. Not using Maven, but I assume that's what the 
Maven dependency would pull in as well?

Quite possibly. Hoping somebody here will be able to confirm or give some

You mean  ? There is no  tag. Did you
try to use the latest Freemarker version?

I have tested the tag with Oracle Java 8 and it works without issue.
Look like incompatibility between IBM Java and Freemarker.
