-------------------------------------------------------------
That warning is to be expected on all currently released versions of Groovy
under JDK9. The operation we are doing is perfectly legal under JDK8 and
earlier and represents correctly working code. It just doesn't conform to the
new rules imposed by the Java 9 module system. It won't affect program use
under JDK9.
In unreleased versions of Groovy, we have a temporary workaround to avoid the
warnings involving setting an environment property flag but this doesn't apply
to using Groovy in an embedded mode like from Gradle. You could adopt the same
approach it uses (involves --add-opens and --add-modules) but it would involve
some hackery on your part.
There are other nasty hacks to get around the warning but I don't recommend
them:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46454995/how-to-hide-warning-illegal-reflective-access-in-java-9-without-jvm-argument
Longer term we are looking at reworking affected parts of Groovy but it will
take some time. If you don't want to hush the warnings using the --add-opens &
--add-modules hack above, I'd just ignore the errors for now.
