warning on windows 10

[sderrick]

When our sdk editor loads on windows 10 I see the following warning

WARNING: An illegal reflective access operation has occurred
WARNING: Illegal reflective access by ro.sync.ui.te (files:c:/Users/Scott/Desktop/ide/oxygen-21.0.0.0.jar) to field javax.swing.text.DefaultHighLighter.highlights

Hi Scott,

What Java version are you using to run the component? Indeed sometimes we are using reflection in our code and newer Java versions report this as a warning.

Hi Scott,

We'll try to fix this warning on our side in a future version, for now you can ignore it.

When loading the SDK on my linux box.

I thought this had been fixed in version 22.0?

Hi Scott,

Oxygen and its Author Component still show in the command line a couple of similar warnings when being run with Java 9 or newer.
I have issues logged on my side to remove these warnings. Honestly there are some warnings like this one you encountered which I'm not sure how I could resolve. For this I would need to copy and maintain on our side a bunch of classes from the Swing package, classes which may differ between Java versions. So I will probably postpone fixing these problems until Java removes completely the possibility to call by reflection methods from its packages.

Radu
