[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-2493?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] Jonáš Trantina updated WFLY-2493: --------------------------------- Description: When trying to access public method/field of non-public class via EL I get {noformat} java.lang.IllegalAccessException: Class javax.el.BeanELResolver can not access a member of class X with modifiers "private" {noformat} This is apparently caused by JDK-4071957 [1], but since that is opened for over 16 years, it should be probably worth it to implement a workaround. Workaround for this issue is setting setAccessible(true) on the method before invoking it, thus suppress Java access checking. I have attached a simple reproducer app as well as a stack trace of the exception.

Workaround for this issue is setting setAccessible(true) on the method before invoking it, thus suppress Java access checking. My guess is it could be done either in BeanELResolver#invokeMethod(...) or BeanELResolver#getMethod(...). I have attached a simple reproducer app as well as a stack trace of the exception.
