Error using gitlab4j-api in native quarkus image

[vindevoy]

Hi,

The library has been used to connect Rundeck to Gitlab in a small Java project that uses Quarkus and GraalVM. It simply returns some basic info (like tags and branches, the current user) and this all works EXCEPT when you build a native image and try to connect. Then there's an error about the InjectionManagerFactory not found.

Problem arises only when using the native image, not the fatjar, ...

Yeah, I have a similar problem.

I did not have time to work on this topic. If you can find a way to fix this, I can review PRs.

InjectionManagerFactory is a class that belongs to the Jersey client that this lib is using.
I guess in the Quarkus world it would be better to use the HTTP client they provide: smallrye-rest-client.

There is an open issue to discuss what should happen with the HTTP client used in this lib:
#924
--> Nothing is decided so far. Feel free to join the discussion.

For the issue mentioned here, a quick search pointed to following issue:
quarkusio/quarkus#1647 (comment)
--> Somebody computed the GraalVM instructions in order to have the Jersey reflection working at runtime in the native mode.

---

It would be interesting to know if this issue has evolved with the 6.0.0-rc.1 version where we are now using a newer version of Jersey 3.1.1 (using the jakarta.* namespace instead of javax.*).
Probably you also need to update to Quarkus 3 in order to use this version.

I am not sure if this is enough for your use case, but @nilchina proposed following change: #1074
