The only change in Jandex 3.0 relevant to Hibernate ORM is that Indexer.index() used to return ClassInfo , but now returns void. This is a breaking change, but Jandex 3.0 has a synthetic bridge method with the old signature for binary compatibility – except it always return null. Therefore, Hibernate ORM either needs to ignore the return value completely (preferrable, as that makes it source-compatible with Jandex 3.0), or be prepared to handle null. This is not a duplicate of https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-15465 ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-15465 ). That issue suggests direct upgrade, which is a breaking change. In my opinion, that requires at least a minor release and isn’t suitable for backporting. In that sense, this issue is a short-term thing that can be included in a micro release, while the other is more of a long-term kind of change that requires at least a minor release in my opinion.
