After upgrading Java version to openJDK 11, modelMapper configurations are not getting loaded, getting NullPointerException.

NullPointerException issue is not resolved even after upgrading modelMapper version to 2.3.2

Error Log:

1) Failed to configure mappings

Internally ByteBuddy is throwing an exception which causes the issue, I will look into it a bit more to see if is perhaps a bug in ModelMapper.

Anyway check out the Java 8 tab at http://modelmapper.org/user-manual/property-mapping/, your current code seems to be using the older documentation.

ModelMapper mm = new ModelMapper();

TypeMap<A, B> typeMap = mm.createTypeMap(A.class, B.class);
typeMap.addMappings(mapper -> {
    mapper.map(A::getDate, B::setTest);
    ... // Other mappings
});

This can convert Date -> Long out of the box without any other configuration. If you wish to configure it further you can always create custom Converters like so:

Converter<Date, Long> dateToLong = new AbstractConverter<Date, Long>() {
    @Override
    protected Long convert(Date source) {
        System.out.println("converting: " + source + " to " + source.getTime());
        return source.getTime();
    }
};

typeMap.addMappings(mapper -> mapper.using(dateToLong).map(A::getDate, B::setTest));

I had the same issue with modelmapper 2.3.0. Updated to latest 2.3.9 and issue was resolved
