AOT: No JSON Encoder error using GraphlQL client

[scmdmo]

Following comment in #495 (comment)

I'm using Spring Boot 3.1.3 together with Graalvm 22.3.1. Use GraphQL from client side app compiled in native, as indicated in docs (https://docs.spring.io/spring-graphql/reference/graalvm-native.html#graalvm.client) I included @RegisterReflectionForBinding with my DTO type

However still get a No JSON Encoder error

Attached, I provide a sample app to reproduce error get in my main app.
It was build in Windows

graphql-client-native.zip

Steps to reproduce the issue:
1 - compile in native
2 - start app

Full stack trace got:

Sorry for the late reply @scmdmo and thanks for the repro project.
This has been now fixed in the 1.2.4-SNAPSHOT and 1.1.8-SNAPSHOT.

You can locally fix that in your application by adding this content in the src/main/resources/META-INF/native-image/org.springframework.graphql/spring-graphql-bug/reflect-config.json:

[
  {
    "name":"org.springframework.graphql.server.support.GraphQlWebSocketMessage",
    "allDeclaredFields":true,
    "allDeclaredMethods":true,
    "allDeclaredConstructors":true,
    "condition": {
      "typeReachable": "org.springframework.graphql.client.AbstractGraphQlClientBuilder"
    }
  }
]

Hi @bclozel, thank you very much. I tried in my local test project and the fix works perfectly. 👍
