HotswapAgent don't pickup new mapping and new class in spring boot

[hnpanther]

Hi
I create simple spring boot application with @RestController and @GetMapping annotation
I use Dcevm-11.0.15+1 and tomcat 9 outside ide with this args:

-javaagent:C:\jdk\dcevm-11.0.15\lib\hotswap\hotswap-agent.jar=autoHotswap=true

If I change existing method body everything is ok and woks(but in log file see error:
HOTSWAP AGENT: 02:04:57.101 ERROR (org.hotswap.agent.plugin.jdk.JdkPlugin) - flushClassInfoCache() exception Unable to make field private static final com.sun.beans.util.Cache com.sun.beans.introspect.ClassInfo.CACHE accessible: module java.desktop does not "opens com.sun.beans.introspect" to unnamed module @12468a38.

If I create new method with @GetMapping hotswapagent detect and reload :
HOTSWAP AGENT: 02:04:57.101 RELOAD (org.hotswap.agent.config.PluginManager) - Reloading classes [com.hnp.myapp.FirstController] (autoHotswap)

but new @GetMapping not working

also If I add new class, hotswapAgent don't detect it
my simple app:

Are you using -XX:HotswapAgent=external ? If not, you haven't dcevm. Setup information are available at : https://github.com/TravaOpenJDK/trava-jdk-11-dcevm

Are you using -XX:HotswapAgent=external ? If not, you haven't dcevm. Setup information are available at : https://github.com/TravaOpenJDK/trava-jdk-11-dcevm

I add this arg but but nothing changes
java option for running tomcat:
-XX:HotswapAgent=external -javaagent:C:\jdk\dcevm-11.0.15\lib\hotswap\hotswap-agent.jar=autoHotswap=true

hotswap-agent.properties(under resource directory):
autoHotswap=true LOGGER=debug extraClasspath=C:\extraclass

[skybber]

Is it working if you use internal HA using -XX:HotswapAgent=fatjar, omit -javaagent.. and use debugger to redefine classes?

I change my jdk and use jbr17 with IDEA.
use this config in hotswap-agent.properties:
autoHotswap=true LOGGER=debug
for run app, in configuration setting use this java option:
-XX:+AllowEnhancedClassRedefinition -XX:HotswapAgent=fatjar

everything is ok when use above config with IDEA.
when I use tomcat without IDEA and using this option for runs tomcat:
-XX:+AllowEnhancedClassRedefinition -XX:HotswapAgent=external -javaagent:C:\jdk\jbrsdk_jcef-17.0.6\lib\hotswap\hotswap-agent.jar=autoHotswap=true

hotswapAgent doesn't detect changes.(when I change method body its detect it but when I create new method with @GetMapping, doesn't detect)

[hnpanther]

When I change method body, tomcat log:
HOTSWAP AGENT: 13:26:27.258 RELOAD (org.hotswap.agent.config.PluginManager) - Reloading classes [com.hnp.myapp.NewController] (autoHotswap) HOTSWAP AGENT: 13:26:27.311 ERROR (org.hotswap.agent.plugin.jdk.JdkPlugin) - classReload() exception No such field java.beans.Introspector.declaredMethodCache on null.

When I add new method with @GetMapping, tomcat log:
HOTSWAP AGENT: 13:30:11.119 RELOAD (org.hotswap.agent.config.PluginManager) - Reloading classes [com.hnp.myapp.NewController] (autoHotswap) HOTSWAP AGENT: 13:30:11.140 ERROR (org.hotswap.agent.plugin.jdk.JdkPlugin) - classReload() exception No such field java.beans.Introspector.declaredMethodCache on null.

I have no problem with your project, HA detected @GetMapping correctly and redefine classes, but I'm not using autoHotswap=true, this option is useful only if you are not using debugger simultaneously.

I have no problem with your project, HA detected @GetMapping correctly and redefine classes, but I'm not using autoHotswap=true, this option is useful only if you are not using debugger simultaneously.

I don't wnat using debugger(I try to load new class or change class at runtime same as production). also I set extraClassPath and watchResources in properties file :
`autoHotswap=true
LOGGER=debug

extraClasspath=F:\apache-tomcat-9.0.73\webapps\test
watchResources=F:\apache-tomcat-9.0.73\webapps\test1`

but When I copy new .class in test and test1 directory, HA Idoesn't seem to do anything(nothing in tomcat log)

HA only works when method body changes(but When I use IDEA everything works and no problem)

[skybber]

If it works only if you change method body, then you are probably not using dcevm. -XX:+AllowEnhancedClassRedefinition -XX:HotswapAgent=fatjar

[hnpanther]

I do test with -XX:+AllowEnhancedClassRedefinition -XX:HotswapAgent=fatjar but There was no difference

I face the same situation,
it doesn't work when I hotswap new .class file to the remote machine
but it works when I hotswap in my IDEA
