0x03. 查找java规范中异常的定义

该异常发生的时机:

12.3.3 Resolution of Symbolic References

可能引起该异常的错误:

• 0x01. IllegalAccessError
• 0x02. InstantiationError
• 0x03. NoSuchFieldError
• 0x04. NoSuchMethodError

从java规范上看UnsatisfiedLinkError也可能会导致这个问题.

0x04. 具体相关的信息

13.4.10 static Fields

eclared static , or vice versa, then a linkage error, specifically an
IncompatibleClassChangeError , will result if the field is used by a pre-existing
binary which expected a field of the other kind. Such changes are not recommended
in code that has been widely distributed.

13.4.19 static Methods

If a method that is not declared private is also declared static (that is, a class
method) and is changed to not be declared static (that is, to an instance method),
or vice versa, then compatibility with pre-existing binaries may be broken, resulting
in a linkage time error, namely an IncompatibleClassChangeError , if these
methods are used by the pre-existing binaries. Such changes are not recommended
in code that has been widely distributed.

13.5.5 Field Declarations

13.5.6 Interface Method Declarations

接口中方法的增加或者删除,也会导致这个异常.

0x05. 分析

实际上我们自己的代码完全不存在java规范上提到的那几个场景,发生异常的地方是一个私有成员也就是规范中说的Feild. 这个成员是几百年都不会变动的,因此不存在上面提到的问题.

那么既然如此,也不可能凭空出来一个IncompatibleClassChangeError! 但是这个问题也仅仅在金融App中报出,金融App试用了360的插件框架,因此怀疑和插件框架相关.

思路:
捕获这个异常,然后把异常时候的classloader打印出来,并且上传埋点.
