As I wrote in my previous post I had issues running code using JEP 443 using tools like Maven, Gradle or IntelliJ IDEA. Thanks to the one and only Tagir Valeev the solution is quite simple.

Upgrade to JDK 21.0.1.

And that’s it ;-)

No need to touch anything else. If you fancy more explanation, please follow on this Twitter thread.

And we shall all remember that upgrading is a good thing, because we’re not going to stay on Java 8 forever, right? ;-)
