Hi everyone

I'm currently working on upgrading Dubbo to build successfully with JDK 25 (on my fork, branch jdk-25).
During the build process, Maven fails with the following error:

'''
io.netty:netty-codec-native-quic:jar:${os.detected.name}-${os.detected.arch}:4.2.2.Final was not found in https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2 during a previous attempt. This failure was cached in the local repository and resolution is not reattempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or updates are forced
'''

I tried forcing updates with ./mvnw clean install -U -DskipTests and verified that os-maven-plugin is declared, but the placeholders (${os.detected.name} and ${os.detected.arch}) don’t seem to be resolving correctly.

Environment:

• JDK 25 (early access)
• Maven Wrapper from Dubbo repo
• OS: Windows 11 x64

Could this be related to the plugin version, or should the Netty dependency be adjusted for newer JDKs?
Any guidance or confirmation would be appreciated

Try ./mvnw -e --batch-mode --no-snapshot-updates --no-transfer-progress --fail-fast -T 2C clean install -P skip-spotless -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Dcheckstyle.skip=true -Dcheckstyle_unix.skip=true -Drat.skip=true
refer to the mvn command at https://github.com/apache/dubbo/blob/3.3/.github/workflows/build-and-test-scheduled-3.3.yml

But i doubt that it could be compiled with JDK25 if you don't upgrade Netty to the latest version, the Unsafe that older Nettys depend on had been removed from JDK25 totally.

Thank you for your suggestion. However, I’m still encountering the same error. After switching my JDK to version 21 and running the clean install command, the build finally succeeded.

Is it just me, or is anyone else also facing build errors with JDK 25?
