Activity status: Stale
Tech stack: java
Domain: devtools

Research direction

Start with JavaInput.java:349, where the stack trace shows the IllegalAccessError while formatting in Eclipse 2022-03 with Java 17. Reproduce the formatter or preview failure in that environment and verify that formatting and formatter selection no longer throw the module-access exception.
