IDEA 2020.3启动项目：java: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

---

一、现象

IDEA启动springboot项目，提示java: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException，没有多余的信息，百度之后都是让修改idea的Java compiler，但是我全都设置的Java8，所以没头绪。

二、解决方法

1.问题进一步描述

谷歌搜了一下，发现Jetbrains的官网有人提这个问题，大致浏览了下，描述和我的问题一致。再看描述产生这个问题的条件：简单描述下，就是IDEA 2020.3版本会复现这个问题，如果升级到2020.4就没有该问题，而且后面的添加提问是说2020.3.1.RC版本也会有这个问题。

What steps will reproduce the issue?

1. Upgrade to 2020.3 invalidate caches and restart
2. Build Project (Ctlr+F9)
3. Build output shows java: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException without any clue what's wrong  // 注意这一句，这个IllegalArgumentException和其他的不同，所以百度搜到的解决方法不能解决该问题
4. Downgrade to 2020.2.4 invalidate caches and restart
5. Build Project (Ctrl+F9)
6. Build succeeds

java -version
openjdk version "1.8.0_275"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_275-b01)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.275-b01, mixed mode)

2. 解决方法

1. 更换IDEA的版本，改成非2020.3和非2020.3.1.RC
2. 不修改IDEA版本，通过配置参数让IDEA跳过一些检查（具体的可以看上面发的链接里的解释，不过好像不是很推荐）。修改参数的方法如下：在Build, Execution, Deployment > Compiler add to the Shared build process VM options设置

-Djps.track.ap.dependencies=false

截图如下

总结

1. idea也是有bug的
2. 百度不好用的时候，别忘了试试Google
