Apache Commons Lang, a package of Java utility classes for the classes that are in java.lang's hierarchy, or are considered to be so standard as to justify existence in java.lang. The code is tested using the latest revision of the JDK for supported LTS releases: 8, 11, 17 and 21 currently. See https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/blob/master/.github/workflows/maven.yml Please ensure your build environment is up-to-date and kindly report any build issues.

Accessing Public Methods In A Default Access Superclass

*

There is an issue when invoking {@code public} methods contained in a default access superclass on JREs prior to 1.4. * Reflection locates these methods fine and correctly assigns them as {@code public}. * However, an {@link IllegalAccessException} is thrown if the method is invoked.

* *

{@link MethodUtils} contains a workaround for this situation. * It will attempt to call {@link java.lang.reflect.AccessibleObject#setAccessible(boolean)} on this method. * If this call succeeds, then the method can be invoked as normal. * This call will only succeed when the application has sufficient security privileges. * If this call fails then the method may fail.
