Seth Leger commented on LOG4J2-832:
-----------------------------------
What JDK are you using when the test passes? I think that this behavior was
introduced in later patches for Java 6 and Java 7. According to this code in
Java 7u40, they added a static initializer to Trampoline that is throwing the
error that I see on my Java 7 system:
http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/root/jdk/openjdk/7u40-b43/sun/reflect/misc/MethodUtil.java#MethodUtil
{code:java}
class Trampoline {
static {
if (Trampoline.class.getClassLoader() == null) {
throw new Error(
"Trampoline must not be defined by the bootstrap classloader");
}
}
...
}
{code}
Another person in my office is running the test on Java 6u65 and also gets an
exception, although the exception is different (NoClassDefFoundError).

> Key: LOG4J2-832
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-832
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 2.0, 2.0.2
> Environment: Java 1.7u60, Java 1.7u25
> Reporter: Seth Leger
> Priority: Blocker
> Attachments: LOG4J2-832.patch, Log4j2MethodUtilTrampolineTest.java,
> Log4j2MethodUtilTrampolineTest.java, ggregory-log4j2.patch, pom.xml
>
>
> When the Logger attempts to log a message with an exception stack trace, it
> uses the ThrowableProxy class to introspect classes in the stack trace frames.
> If the class sun.reflect.misc.Trampoline is in the stack trace, the
> introspection performed by ThrowableProxy will fail causing a java.lang.Error
> to be thrown by the Logger call.
> The sun.reflect.misc.Trampoline class is used by the
> sun.reflect.misc.MethodUtil class to perform reflection-based method
> invocations. MethodUtil is widely used by libraries to perform method
> invocations. I've encountered this problem when invoking methods over JMX and
> inside Jetty.
> I am classifying this as a blocker because it means that any logging
> statement that is logging a Throwable message containing a MethodUtil-based
> reflection stack trace can cause a java.lang.Error to be thrown by Log4j2.
> I will attach a unit test for this failure.
