Java 9 Illegal reflective access groovy 2.4.13 about spotbugs-maven-plugin

[hazendaz]

Closing issue as this is not a problem with our library. Groovy is aware of the issue and it is not fixed in any of their versions includuing 2.5, 2.6, and 3.0 releases. There is no need for us to track their issue. We are otherwise good through jdk10.

We should be able to fix this when when using <fork>true</fork> by adding the appropriate --add-opens arguments for the forked JVM. I did something similar for a Maven plugin that uses Jython: airlift/sphinx-maven-plugin@c870da4

Groovy long since fixed issues. We are no longer having any problems I'm aware of. We run fine on all jdk version now. Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/ghei36>

I still see this warning with version 3.1.10 of the plugin. It actually happens during configuration, even if the plugin is disabled with <skip>true</skip>:

Ah, I see that the plugin itself is written in Groovy (rather than embedding it), which explains why it happens even when disabled, so the suggested workaround isn't an option.

Yes but that is a warning originating in third party. I have zero plans to hide the warning. That does nothing to fix it. As it stated, report to owner of the library in question. This plugin isnt the issue. Groovy is. They are aware anyways and it will eventually be fixed. Until then there is no issue here. Just caught your last message. You got it! Thanks!
