Graal: [native-image] Image building fails with UnsupportedFeatureException errors: Unsupported features in 6 methods

[neomatrix369]

I'm trying to build a native image from a Java 8 Jar file (I can provide this file) and have been using a slightly older version of GraalVM CE (version 19.2.1) because when I use the latest version (GraalVM Version CE 19.3.1) tp build the image I get an error like this [java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Lorg/codehaus/janino/ScriptEvaluator which I believe has already been reported via https://github.com/oracle/graal/issues/1943 hence I moved back to the version where this error does not occur.

Env: Linux/docker container
native-image version: GraalVM Version CE 19.2.1

Command:

native-image --no-fallback --no-fallback --report-unsupported-elements-at-runtime --allow-incomplete-classpath

See rest of the exception message.

Looks like there are multiple errors reported. Stacktrace can be found here.

It's possible others have come across these and have some workaround or fix for it., would be nice to know, if any.

Hi @neomatrix369, it seems that you can work around java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Lorg/codehaus/janino/ScriptEvaluator using one of these:

• Adding a dependency on Janino
• Initializing JaninoEventEvaluatorBase at build time

Can you confirm that the issue still happens in GraalVM 20.0.0? If so, would you please share a reproducer?

[neomatrix369]

@jramirez-isc thanks for that, I'll give it a whirl and report back, have not retried yet with the newest version of GraalVM

[fernando-valdez]

Hi @neomatrix369, did the new version fixes the issue? If that is not the case, can you please share the reproducer so we can provide better assistance?

Thanks for proding, I didn't get a chance to try the new versions of GraalVM yet. Will feedback when I have got around it. Hoping the issue has faded away for good.

[fernando-valdez]

Hello @neomatrix369. Do you have any updates on this?

[neomatrix369]

Hello @neomatrix369. Do you have any updates on this?

On my list to do next, I will get back to you with results

[neomatrix369]

@fernando-valdez do you want me to check this in GraalVM 20.0.1 and/or GraalVM 20.1.0 (there is no GraalVM 20.0.0 from the releases page) I can try from both and give you a feedback but let me first try it with GraalVM 20.0.1

[neomatrix369]

I'm currently checking this with GraalVM 20.1.0.

This does not happen anymore with GraalVM 20.1.0 on macOS (Sierra), I actually didn't need to any of the above sugestions (above quotes), so far it has built the native-image without any errors:

I do have issues when running it but that could be because I must have missed out something either during build-time or some other config when running it. I will look into this further as a separate task.

Let's keep this issue open for a few days and I'll let you know how it goes.

@neomatrix369, I am glad that the issue with java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Lorg/codehaus/janino/ScriptEvaluator is not longer present.
We will keep the bug open, please keep us posted for any new information you find.

In addition, there has been no regression of this issue https://github.com/oracle/graal/issues/1533, which is also good news. Because the jar I raised the issue also had this issue many months ago - now fixed!
