spring-aop On apple silicon (M1) : Illegal method name


My working project uses kotlin + spring-boot.

I found this issue when I try to run a test case having space like should success WHEN setting key is api updatable on the MacBook apple-m1 machine.

Example

@Test
@Transactional
fun `should success when setting key is api updatable`()

Then JVM throw Exception that contains stack trace looks like this

Caused by: java.lang.ClassFormatError: Illegal method name "should success when setting key is api updatable" in class com/xxx/xxx/web/rest/CompanySettingResourceIntTest$$EnhancerBySpringCGLIB$$f0902682

This happens on my MacBook m1 machine but never happens on the intel machine.

I try to investigate this issue, then I found when using @Transactional on the method in bean, spring-aop will create a proxy class by using method java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass.

I have a lot of methods that look like this and it's easy to read. Can I use a method name that contains space run in the m1 machine, How do I fix it?

Thank you.


Environment

  • JDK version 1.8 (AArch64)
  • Spring boot 1.5.16
  • JUnit 4

(I try to POC using spring-boot2+JUnit5 test-case name contains space is fine. But a method in beans throws the Illegal method name too.)

Solution

  • You might be hitting Spring issue #21674 which was fixed in Spring 5.1. You might want to upgrade, if that is an option. It seems there is a fix which ignores those kinds of methods. If that is OK for you or not, I do not know.

    Some background information: Your target method is transactional, so Spring tries to create a CGLIB proxy for it. I quickly verified in a simple Spock (Groovy) test that CGLIB seems to be unable to handle methods containing spaces correctly -probably because it is simply unaware of languages like Groovy and Kotlin which allow such things. Here is a proof of concept. I used Groovy and Spock, because I am lazy and did not want to set up a Kotlin project. But I am expecting the result to be identical.

    Java class under test:

    package de.scrum_master.stackoverflow.q70654015;
    
    public class SampleJava {
      public String greet(String input) {
        return "Hello " + input + "!";
      }
    }
    

    Groovy class under test:

    package de.scrum_master.stackoverflow.q70654015
    
    class SampleGroovy {
      String "say hello to"(String input) {
        "Hello $input!"
      }
    }
    

    Spock test creating CGLIB proxies:

    package de.scrum_master.stackoverflow.q70654015
    
    import net.sf.cglib.proxy.Enhancer
    import net.sf.cglib.proxy.MethodInterceptor
    import spock.lang.Specification
    
    class CGLIBProxyTest extends Specification {
      def "create CGLIB proxy for Java class"() {
        given:
        Enhancer enhancer = new Enhancer()
        enhancer.superclass = SampleJava
        enhancer.callback = { obj, method, args, proxy ->
          method.getDeclaringClass() != Object.class && method.getReturnType() == String.class
            ? "Hello cglib!"
            : proxy.invokeSuper(obj, args)
        } as MethodInterceptor
    
        when:
        SampleJava proxy = enhancer.create()
    
        then:
        proxy.greet("world") == "Hello cglib!"
      }
    
      def "create CGLIB proxy for Groovy class with spaces in method name"() {
        given:
        Enhancer enhancer = new Enhancer()
        enhancer.superclass = SampleGroovy
        enhancer.callback = { obj, method, args, proxy ->
          method.getDeclaringClass() != Object.class && method.getReturnType() == String.class
            ? "Hello cglib!"
            : proxy.invokeSuper(obj, args)
        } as MethodInterceptor
    
        when:
        SampleGroovy proxy = enhancer.create()
    
        then:
        proxy."say hello to"("world") == "Hello cglib!"
      }
    }
    

    The first test passes, the second one fails with:

    This is the same error you experieced. As soon as you rename the Groovy method to something which is legal in a JVM, the test passes.

    With regard to your claim that the behaviour is supposed to be dependent on the hardware or OS platform, I disagree. I think you probably have differences in your runtime environment. How are you building and running your project? Maven, Gradle, something else?


    Update: I have good news for you: I had run my test on JDK 8 and 15 and cglib:cglib-nodep:3.2.6. When upgrading to CGLIB 3.3.0, the test started passing. So you might want to version-manage CGLIB in your Maven POM's <dependencyManagement> section (or whatever is Gradle's equivalent) to that version. Maybe it helps. Please note that some tools might also depend on cglib:cglib, so you want to version-manage that one too. I.e., make sure that you use these versions:

    • cglib:cglib-nodep:3.3.0
    • cglib:cglib:3.3.0 (if it is used in your application)

    Update 2: I am not a regular Spring user, so I forgot that Spring Core (artifact org.springframework:spring-core) includes its own CGLIB version, relocated to base package name org.springframework.cglib. Please note the package name difference from your stack trace to the original net.sf.cglib for my stand-alone example.

    I checked for you and found out that since version 5.2.0.RELEASE, Spring Core was upgraded to CGLIB 3.3.0. So if you can use a Spring version 5.2.0 or more recent, chances are that it works for you.
