Re: TomEE does not launch on Java 24

Hi Wolfgang,

we just pushed some changes, which should allow TomEE to run on Java 24 (with=
 some limitations regarding EJB method security, etc.)

Nightlies should be available via https://repository.apache.org/content/group=
s/snapshots/org/apache/tomee/apache-tomee/10.1.1-SNAPSHOT/ soon.
