1 year ago The update fails due to an Spring boot incompatibility. Updating to JDK17 is hard, due to removal of JavaFX and it has been migrated to OpenFX There is a problem right now that needs to be written down. When Spring module start it contains org.springframework.cglib.core.CodeGenerationException: java.lang.reflect.InaccessibleObjectException
This is documented here:

To solve it, we need to update Spring boot dependencies to latest and is an issue for ARM machines
More over it affects the junit testing and needs to be migrated from junit4 to junit5

Migration to junit5 can be done with https://www.baeldung.com/junit-5-migration
We currently include JDK8 but we should move forward to the latest JDK LTS. This concept will need refactoring due to removal of JavaFX libraries
