Thank you very much Reinhold Füreder I will look into reflection, but probably just choose to ignore the errors and they do not end up causing problems anyways. And I will consider filling a bug with Jenkins.

Partially I have actually uses a workaround for that compilation failure: However, I am not sure it is worth it – because it is based on using reflection, e.g.: def instance = Jenkins.getInstance() … // LDAPSecurityRealm class depends on "LDAP" plugin => use reflection for creation: def ldapSecurityRealmClass = this.class.classLoader.loadClass('hudson.security.LDAPSecurityRealm') SecurityRealm ldapRealm = ldapSecurityRealmClass.newInstance(server, rootDN, userSearchBase, userSearch, groupSearchBase, managerDN, managerPassword, inhibitInferRootDN) instance.setSecurityRealm(ldapRealm) instance.save() And later on, IIRC, I mostly “only” relied on the init scripts (one for each responsibility “area”) checking whether or not a restart due to plugin installation/updates is still pending based on a kind of marker file (and ignoring compilation failures): def restartFile = new File(instance.getRootDir(), "JenkinsRestartByInitScript") if (restartFile.exists()) { println "--> Jenkins restart is pending: skipping this hook script" return } // Here follows the logic like setting up the LDAP security realm… HTH -- although this is not a real solution, Reinhold -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
