Compilation fails without --report-unsupported-elements-at-runtime

[agilob]

Describe the issue

I'm getting the error below when native-image.properties doesn't contain --report-unsupported-elements-at-runtime

Uncommenting the parameter produces working native-image.

Steps to reproduce the issue
Please include both build steps as well as run steps

1. git clone git@github.com:agilob/mhipster-graal.git
2. MICRONAUT_ENVIRONMENTS=prod ./gradlew assemble && bash ./docker-build.sh

Describe GraalVM and your environment:
Graal docker image: 20.2.0
SubstrateVM (dependency in build.gradle) 20.2.0

@agilob did you try to run the native-image-agent to generate config files?

[agilob]

I have run java -jar -agentlib:native-image-agent=config-output-dir=config-files build/libs/mhip-2-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-all.jar before and put simplified generated config files to meta-inf.

By simplified I mean I removed some classes that micronaut handles during compilation, so it would be duplicated.

[agilob]

@graemerocher commented on gitter that method handles aren't supported yet by graal. Is this a duplicate then?

[oubidar-Abderrahim]

Yes indeed, method handlers are not supported by GraalVM currently. This is a duplicate

[agilob]

Can you please link duplicates together and where is this being worked on?

[oubidar-Abderrahim]

Duplicate of #955
As mentioned in #955, MethodHandle allows nested composition, i.e., complex arbitrary expressions that can be changed at run time and therefore not compiled ahead of time.

Maybe @christianwimmer can shed more light on this.
