Hello Peter,

I know you probably know ;-)
that this fast solution which I post now is not so well appreciated due
to its possible privileges unconvenients, but in the meanwhile
if I was you I would access private members with a PrivilegedAction:


  public static Object testAccess(Object instance, String s) {
   try {
     final Field f = instance.getClass().getDeclaredField(s);
     AccessController.doPrivileged(new PrivilegedAction() {
       public Object run() {
         f.setAccessible(true);
         return null;
       }
     });
     Object o = f.get(instance);
     return o;
   } catch(Exception e) {
     e.printStackTrace();
   }
   return null;
  }


Hoping it would be be useful as temporary patch ;-)

Bye
