DL-Learner fails to init() with latest JDK >16

[posixcompliance]

Hello,

I wanted to bring to light an error I am receiving when running components-core FatherExample unit test with my current JDK 17. This error occurs despite setting the target language to 8.

Process finished with exit code 1

I did manage to find a simple workaround by modifying any calls to org.apache.jena.vocabulary.XSD.getURI() in the DL-Learner source code with the intended String literal value of "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#".

I am unsure of whether this is an issue with the included Jena dependencies or if this indicative of a fundamental change in the way reflection can be used to access library functions outside of the scope of the main module being run in the latest JDK versions.

I believe I encountered the same problem and added --add-opens java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED to the jvm options as a workaround
