When using JDK11 with Grails 4 you likely have seen these messages:
WARNING: An illegal reflective access operation has occurred
WARNING: Illegal reflective access by org.codehaus.groovy.reflection.CachedConstructor$1 (file:/Users/erichelgeson/.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/org.codehaus.groovy/groovy/2.5.6/6936e700f0fb1b50bac0698ada4347a769d40199/groovy-2.5.6.jar) to constructor com.sun.jmx.mbeanserver.JmxMBeanServer(java.lang.String,javax.management.MBeanServer,javax.management.MBeanServerDelegate)

This is because Groovy 2.5 uses reflection. In Groovy 3 they've already made great strides on this.
For now we can add the correct packages to the --add-opens JVM args to get rid of them.
NOTE: This is the same way Groovy 2.5 removes them when calling groovy with the GROOVY_TURN_OFF_JAVA_WARNINGS environment variable.
In our build.gradle file we can define a list of modules to open:
def jvmOpenModulesArgs = [
"--add-opens=java.management/com.sun.jmx.mbeanserver=ALL-UNNAMED",

"--add-opens=java.rmi/java.rmi.server=ALL-UNNAMED",
"--add-opens=java.sql/java.sql=ALL-UNNAMED"
]
Then add them to our bootRun task:
bootRun {
jvmArgs('-noverify',
'-XX:TieredStopAtLevel=1',
'-Xmx1024m')
jvmArgs(jvmOpenModulesArgs)
// ...
}
And any task with GroovyCompile & Test
tasks.withType(GroovyCompile) {
options.forkOptions.jvmArgs = jvmOpenModulesArgs
}
tasks.withType(Test) {
jvmArgs = jvmOpenModulesArgs
}
That's it - no more pesky reflective access warnings when the JVM starts up. Thanks to Daniel Sun helping me find the right modules.
