I've submitted PR for the reproduce application on spring-projects/spring-boot-issues#72.

Thanks for the sample @kazuki43zoo! This is related to JNDI and the binding apparently, see more complete stacktrace

[mbhave]

The fix that went in for #9801 causes this to break. ResultMapping from iBatis has a List<ResultMapping> and leads to a StackOverflowException. I've added a test case to reproduce that. Also added a test case for being able to bind to a nested collection. I'm not yet sure about how we can achieve the behavior required for #9801 and prevent this failure.

[kazuki43zoo]

A temporary workaround is adding the -Dspring.jndi.ignore=true on VM option. However, there is the limitation that cannot use the JNDI property source feature.

@mbhave pointed out I missed a @Test annotation, when added things fail.
