Clojurians Log v2

I'm trying to make a native image of a clojure application of mine that's a very simple command-line wrapper around kibit, https://gitlab.com/tvaughan/kibit-runner/-/tree/master/kibit-runner/src/kibit_runner. To compile this I run:

clojure -A:depstar:$@ dist/kibit-runner-standalone.jar -C -m kibit-runner.cmdline
	native-image                                                            \
	  -jar dist/kibit-runner-standalone.jar                                 \
	  dist/kibit-runner                                                     \
	  --initialize-at-build-time=clojure                                    \
	  --report-unsupported-elements-at-runtime                              \
	  --no-server

are you aot compiling everything?

I think so. I'm using the -C option in depstar to compile the uberjar, https://github.com/seancorfield/depstar#aot-compilation

require allows you to specify you can load it verbosely: https://clojuredocs.org/clojure.core/require

I would try requiring verbosely and seeing if that helps track down what might be using clojure.server

nothing jumps out as a problem with your usage. I might try starting with a simple -main that just prints something and progressively add the dependencies and functionality to try to narrow down what might be the issue. it's a little tricky though since native-image does a pretty good job of only trying to only include necessary dependenciies

What should I look for in this output? I don't see any namespace being loaded that contains the string server

I appreciate the help. Thanks

it should be printing out the order in which namespaces are loaded. i was hoping the last print before the stack trace would identify the culprit

The stacktrace occurs at runtime, not compile time
