Question

So i was trying to use this solution to change value of my @Table.name, but i got this error and i'am not really sure, how to fix this:

java.lang.reflect.InaccessibleObjectException: Unable to make field private final java.util.Map sun.reflect.annotation.AnnotationInvocationHandler.memberValues accessible: module java.base does not "opens sun.reflect.annotation" to unnamed module @7a92922

This is little part of my code where i got this exception (last string):

Table annotation = Word.class.getDeclaredAnnotation(Table.class);
Object handler = Proxy.getInvocationHandler(annotation);
Field memberValuesField = handler.getClass().getDeclaredField("memberValues");
memberValuesField.setAccessible(true);

Version of java 8

In Java you can "open" packages to be accessible at runtime with this environment variable:

JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=--add-opens=java.base/<package_name>=ALL-UNNAMED

For your example, above should be change to:
JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=--add-opens=java.base/sun.reflect.annotation=ALL-UNNAMED

If that does not work try: JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=--add-opens=java.base/java.util=ALL-UNNAMED

Can you please explain why this error occurred? Where does the need to set environment variables come from? – Similization Sep 27 '22 at 20:04
I tried your advices, but nothing changed for me. If i did it right of course, i added screenshot. – Similization Sep 27 '22 at 20:13
In Intellij Idea open Run -> Edit configurations and put there that environment variable, in your application environment. – Mario Metushev Sep 27 '22 at 20:24
thanks, that's actually help. But maybe you can explain me why this error was occurred and is there a problem in my project or it is a part of programming that you have to use environment variable. To be honest, I have not encountered such a need before, so I would like to know more about it. – Similization Sep 29 '22 at 11:55

@Similization Little late, but perhaps you never got an answer or someone else has the same question: The error is due to the _Java Platform Module System_ (JPMS) added in Java 9. JPMS added stronger encapsulation. A module `exports` a certain number (possibly zero) packages. The public members of that package are now part of the public API. They can be accessed by other modules, both "normally" and via reflection. But non-public members can only be reflectively accessed if the module `opens` the package. The `--add-opens` JVM argument is a way to "modify" the module's directives. – Slaw Feb 11 '23 at 19:32
This article is a good introduction to JPMS: [Understanding Java 9 Modules](https://www.oracle.com/corporate/features/understanding-java-9-modules.html). – Slaw Feb 11 '23 at 19:33
how can we add this to maven/pom.xml? – Jagadeesh May 02 '23 at 12:59
