             Summary: ReflectionFactory is essential thanks to 
PlatformDotNetSessionLockResult
                 Key: IGNITE-12483
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-12483
             Project: Ignite
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: binary
            Reporter: Ilya Kasnacheev


We currently treat ReflectionFactory as a nice-to-have thing, so we silently 
ignore failures of its reflection:
{code}
        try {
            Class<?> refFactoryCls = 
Class.forName("sun.reflect.ReflectionFactory");

            refFac = 
refFactoryCls.getMethod("getReflectionFactory").invoke(null);

            ctorFac = 
refFac.getClass().getMethod("newConstructorForSerialization", Class.class,
                Constructor.class);
        }
        catch (NoSuchMethodException | ClassNotFoundException | 
IllegalAccessException | InvocationTargetException ignored) {
            // No-op.
        }
{code}

However, it is now essential thanks to the class 
PlatformDotNetSessionLockResult, which is always registered during note 
start-up and which does not have empty constructor.

So not having access to ReflectionFactory (JBoss will hide it, for example) 
will lead to the following cryptic exception (courtesy stack overflow):
{code}
2019-12-19 09:11:39,355 SEVERE [org.apache.ignite.internal.IgniteKernal] 
(ServerService Thread Pool -- 81) Got exception while starting (will rollback 
startup routine).: class org.apache.ignite.binary.BinaryObjectException: Failed

My suggestions are the following:
- Introduce a warning when ReflectionFactory not found instead of ignoring 
exception.
- Add empty constructor to PlatformDotNetSessionLockResult and make sure no 
other classes need reflection during start-up.
- (optionally) instead, introduce an error when ReflectionFactory not found.
