ASF GitHub Bot commented on MWAR-405: ------------------------------------- GitHub user eolivelli reopened a pull request: https://github.com/apache/maven-plugins/pull/112 MWAR-405 Workaround XStream incompatibility with Java9 This is a proof-of-concept implementation of a possible way to word-around the actual incompatibility of xstreams default converters with java9. As the maven-war-plugin does not need all of the converters (like TreeMapConverter which is the primary cause of the issue) we can just register only the needed ones and bypass the java9 issue see Caused by: java.lang.reflect.InaccessibleObjectException: Unable to make field private final java.util.Comparator java.util.TreeMap.comparator accessible: module java.base does not "opens java.util" to unnamed module Happens while initializing org.apache.maven.plugins.war.util.WebappStructureSerializer at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAVEN/Java+9+-+Jigsaw this PR is just a proof-of-concept, there is an email thread on the dev list.
