everyone.

I was trying to execute ” mvn clean test ” to verify a simple maven project which was generated by “mvn archetype:generate”.I just to want learning how to write unit test.But I got a exception , after a long time debug and trying , I don’t know how to continue,please give me some advice. Because I don’t know what’s wrong, so I will try to give as much info as I can.

Tests in error: 
  testApp(com.juexi.learning.AppTest)

what I have tried: I tried to debug and I got this in class BsdVirtualMachine.class

public BsdVirtualMachine(AttachProvider provider, String vmid)
        throws AttachNotSupportedException, IOException
    {
        super(provider, vmid);

        // This provider only understands pids
        int pid;
        try {
            pid = Integer.parseInt(vmid);
        } catch (NumberFormatException x) {
            throw new AttachNotSupportedException("Invalid process identifier");
        }

        // Find the socket file. If not found then we attempt to start the
        // attach mechanism in the target VM by sending it a QUIT signal.
        // Then we attempt to find the socket file again.
        path = findSocketFile(pid);
        if (path == null) {
            File f = new File(tmpdir, ".attach_pid" + pid);


            createAttachFile(f.getPath());  // this line is where the exception comes from


            try {
                sendQuitTo(pid);
            ....

and it invoke in ClassLoader.class :

    static long findNative(ClassLoader loader, String name) {
        Vector<NativeLibrary> libs =
            loader != null ? loader.nativeLibraries : systemNativeLibraries;
        synchronized (libs) {
            int size = libs.size();
            for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
                NativeLibrary lib = libs.elementAt(i);
                long entry = lib.find(name);
                if (entry != 0)
                    return entry;
            }
        }
        return 0;
    }

It seems a native method createAttachFile(String path) tried to create a file ,and the ClassLoader was trying to load this native method from local, but it can not find this method in /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/zulu-8.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/lib/libattach.dylib ( I find this by debuging). so, what can I do to fix this problem?and I don’t know how to do next.could someone help me?

Answer

With @Mells ‘s help, I post this issue to the developers of jmockit (for more please check github) and the developer told me that this was because zulujdk8 remove the native method.
