You know, I love Spring Native. I've been working on making as much of the Java ecosystem work with Spring Native as I can. Spring Native works all but perfectly for most Spring configuration classes. You don't need to do much unless your objects do something tricky that might anger the GraalVM native image compiler deity, like reflection, loading resources from the CLASSPATH, JDK or AOT(ByteBuddy, CGLib) proxies, serialization, etc. Then, you need to feed the beast some extra information about what went wrong and why.

Hi, Spring fans! I've been working on getting various projects working with the latest-and-greatest Spring Native release. Spring Native is a framework that helps derive the hints for your Spring Boot application so that they work correctly in a GraalVM natively compiled context. I did an extensive Spring Tips video on the topic just a week ago, and you should definitely check that out for the skinny on what's new and nice in Spring Native 0.11.x. Most Spring Boot applications doing typical bean creation and injection should work out of the box. The tricky bits are when you're trying to work with frameworks that leverage some of the JVM's more dynamic capabilities, like reflection and proxies. So, I've been looking at some of those more interesting use cases and seeing what it'd take to make them work with Spring Native.
