Java 8 default methods (Pseudo Traits) result in NoSuchMethodError

[alanroche]

A reload on a class that uses a default method fails. Eg. Implement WithLogger below and invoke logger().info(...) This results in a failure: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: SmsController.logger()Lorg/slf4j/Logger;

package test;

import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;

/**
 *
*/
public interface WithLogger  {
    default Logger logger() {
        return LoggerFactory.getLogger(this.getClass());
    }
}
