Error Message: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal Lookup object . Stack Trace: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal Lookup object - originated from java.lang.invoke: java.lang.invoke.StringConcatFactory at java.lang.invoke.StringConcatFactory.<clinit>(StringConcatFactor y.java:193) at java.lang.invoke.MethodHandle.getCPMethodHandleAt(Native Method) at java.lang.invoke.MethodHandle.resolveInvokeDynamic(MethodHandle. java:660) . This occurs when any class in the java.lang.invoke package attempts to create a java.lang.MethodHandles$Lookup object for use in an invokedynamic instruction
Local fix
Problem summary
The JVM was too restrictive in the access rights allowed to Lookup objects created for invokedynamic instructions from methods in the java.lang.invoke package.
Problem conclusion
The JVM has been updated to allow invokedynamic instructions in the the java.lang.invoke package to have the same visibility as other bytecodes in the same classfile. . This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases: 8 SR3 (8.0.3.0) . Contact your IBM Product's Service Team for these Service Refreshes and Fix Packs.
