MBean / MXBean issue during native build

[simonDeHero]

Describe the issue I am building a smallish Spring Webapp (REST, JPA, Feign client to call other service, putting messages to AWS SQS). I get the following errors:

I also tried to initialize the relevant classes at run-time, but then i got different errors:

...
[opa:4345]     analysis: 243,161.57 ms, 13.39 GB
Error: Classes that should be initialized at run time got initialized during image building:
 com.sun.management.internal.HotSpotDiagnostic the class was requested to be initialized at run time (from the command line). com.sun.management.internal.HotSpotDiagnostic has been initialized without the native-image initialization instrumentation and the stack trace can't be tracked. Try avoiding to initialize the class that caused initialization of com.sun.management.internal.HotSpotDiagnostic
org.apache.catalina.mbeans.MBeanUtils the class was requested to be initialized at run time (from the command line). org.apache.catalina.mbeans.MBeanUtils has been initialized without the native-image initialization instrumentation and the stack trace can't be tracked.

Try avoiding to initialize the class that caused initialization of com.sun.jmx.mbeanserver.JmxMBeanServer
...

so it seems, that i am stuck, because initializing during build does not work, and also initializing at run-time does not work either.

Steps to reproduce the issue I am really sorry, i cannot share the code

bump :-)

[cstancu]

@vjovanov would your recent changes to class initialization help avoid these MBean issues? @simonDeHero you could try rebuilding with a dev version that contains https://github.com/oracle/graal/issues/2650.

[simonDeHero]

thx! i will try then with 20.2, when it is released

[vjovanov]

Yes, my changes could help with this issue. Let me know if it worked out.

[cstancu]

Please reopen if still an issue.

version OpenJDK Runtime Environment GraalVM CE 22.3.0 (build 17.0.5+8-jvmci-22.3-b08) still is an issue.
