Hi, I am having trouble calling a web service using CXF from a google app engine app. I am getting a "java.lang.IllegalAccessException: Reflection is not allowed on private static java.net.Authenticator” exception. From the CXF sources, I can see the problem lies in "CXFAuthenticator.addAuthenticator", which does a lot of reflection stuff, amongst other things setting fields on “java.net.Authenticator” to public/accessible.
This does not play well on google app engine, which restricts such code. Are there any known workarounds for this? I have included the stack trace below: java.lang.SecurityException: java.lang.IllegalAccessException: Reflection is not allowed on private static java.net.Authenticator java.net.Authenticator.theAuthenticator at com.google.appengine.runtime.Request.process-9db71e78e4e5e190(Request.java) at org.apache.cxf.common.util.ReflectionUtil$6.run(ReflectionUtil.java:110 at org.apache.cxf.common.util.ReflectionUtil$6.run(ReflectionUtil.java:108) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(AccessController.java:34) at org.apache.cxf.common.util.ReflectionUtil.setAccessible(ReflectionUtil.java:108) at org.apache.cxf.transport.http.CXFAuthenticator.addAuthenticator(CXFAuthenticator.java:53) at org.apache.cxf.transport.http.URLConnectionHTTPConduit.<init>(URLConnectionHTTPConduit.java:69) at org.apache.cxf.transport.http.HTTPTransportFactory.getConduit(HTTPTransportFactory.java:258) at org.apache.cxf.binding.soap.SoapTransportFactory.getConduit(SoapTransportFactory.java:238) at org.apache.cxf.endpoint.AbstractConduitSelector.getSelectedConduit(AbstractConduitSelector.java:110) at org.apache.cxf.endpoint.UpfrontConduitSelector.prepare(UpfrontConduitSelector.java:63) at org.apache.cxf.endpoint.ClientImpl.prepareConduitSelector(ClientImpl.java:850) at org.apache.cxf.endpoint.ClientImpl.doInvoke(ClientImpl.java:525) at org.apache.cxf.endpoint.ClientImpl.invoke(ClientImpl.java:463) at org.apache.cxf.endpoint.ClientImpl.invoke(ClientImpl.java:366) at org.apache.cxf.endpoint.ClientImpl.invoke(ClientImpl.java:319) at org.apache.cxf.frontend.ClientProxy.invokeSync(ClientProxy.java:96) at org.apache.cxf.jaxws.JaxWsClientProxy.invoke(JaxWsClientProxy.java:133)
