Upgrade to Eclipse 2022-06-java17 breaks RCPTT [message #1854239]

For running via maven the rcppt test in my project
https://srv.elexis.info/jenkins/view/UITest/job/elexis-uitest-h2/1415/
I add the patched rcptt.launching.ext-jar from https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=580261 to my AUT.

Now the AUT starts and works. But I get tons of errors "java.lang.NoSuchFieldException: messageCount" flood my log.

I was unable to launch the same AUT from the RCPTT-IDE as I got the error
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.jface.window.Window$AjcClosure1
over and over again.

I would really appreciate if somebody could give a hint on how to avoid these problems.

Best regards and thanks for your work on RCPTT!

Niklaus, I'm unable to find your AUT on the Jenkins. Could you please give me a download link to test RCPTT on? If the AUT is private, a link can be sent to vasili.gulevich@xored.com

I post my experience with the hope it could help others.
We are migrating to Eclipse 2022-06 / java 17, and we faced both issues Niklaus were mentioning.

"messageCount" flood error
For this, we just migrated our RCPTT environment to the latest nightly, which includes a patch which solves this issue. I took both runner and RCPTT IDE from here

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.jface.window.Window$AjcClosure1
If you scroll the error log to the bottom, you notice another type of exception, which looks like this: "warning define generated class failed -- (InaccessibleObjectException) Unable to make protected final java.lang.Class java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass ... etc etc ". The row below explains the reals issue : "module java.base does not "opens java.lang" to unnamed module".
This is a feature of java 17, which doesn't allow indiscriminate reflection anymore by any class in the workspace.
You can instruct RCPTT to launch the AUT adding the following VM argument: --add-opens=java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED

This solved my problems (the error java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.jface.window.Window$AjcClosure1 also disappeards).

Best Regards,
Enrico

Upgrading to RCPTT 2.5.4 fixed my problem.
We also updated our app to Eclipse 2022-09. I do not know whether this contribution was necessary to solve the problem.
I asked xored to fix this problem and they fixed it for a reasonable price. Thanks a lot!
