Darrel Schneider updated GEODE-9468: ------------------------------------ Labels: Java16 (was: ) > tomcat session state management will not work on java 16 > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: GEODE-9468 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-9468 > Project: Geode > Issue Type: Bug > Components: http session > Reporter: Darrel Schneider > Priority: Major > Labels: Java16 > > The class org.apache.geode.modules.session.catalina.DeltaSession calls > Field.setAccessible in a static block. It is getting access to a field in the > super class which was private in tomcat 7 (see GEODE-3434). Because of this > tomcat session state management will not work on java 16 (see > [https://softwaregarden.dev/en/posts/new-java/illegal-access-in-java-16/)] > unless jvm args are used to permit the call (for example > "--illegal-access=permit"). > If we can drop support for tomcat 7 then this reflection would no longer be > needed. It might also be possible to only call setAccessible if the field is > private which would mean only tomcat 7 would not work on java 16. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
