OK I see that JDK-5070281 changes to allow the agent class to be non-public as the main class that declares `public static void main`. So `setAccessible` should only be called if the agent class is in an unnamed module. If the agent class is in a named module and not accessible to java.instrument module (if the java agent is packaged in a modular JAR file), it should fail with IAE - can you confirm? I wanted to understand the current behavior. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/1694
