------------------------------------

             Summary: EasyMock is causing illegal reflective access warning with Java 11
                 Key: CXF-8381
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-8381
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.4.1
            Reporter: Peter De Maeyer


When I build cxf master with Java 11, there is a warning about an illegal reflective access operation:

{noformat}
[ERROR] WARNING: An illegal reflective access operation has occurred
[ERROR] WARNING: Illegal reflective access by org.easymock.cglib.core.ReflectUtils$1 (file:/home/peter/.m2/repository/org/easymock/easymock/4.2/easymock-4.2.jar) to method java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(java.lang.String,byte[],int,int,java.security.ProtectionDomain)
[ERROR] WARNING: Please consider reporting this to the maintainers of org.easymock.cglib.core.ReflectUtils$1
[ERROR] WARNING: Use --illegal-access=warn to enable warnings of further illegal reflective access operations
[ERROR] WARNING: All illegal access operations will be denied in a future release
{noformat}

This probably needs to be fixed in EasyMock, or maybe it is already fixed in EasyMock and CXF just needs to bump the version of the dependency?

Slightly off topic: I was surprised EasyMock is still alive...
I switched from EasyMock to Mockito 15 years ago or so, across different companies and different projects, and never looked back.
Could CXF consider doing the same?
