@Query with sort does not work in Native Image (Unexpected AOP exception)

[VR4J]

Hello 👋

I'm trying to use the @Query annotation with sorting functionality like the one below.

@Query(value = "{ 'forename': ?0 }", sort = "{ 'forename': 1 }")
Optional<Person> getFirstPersonByForename(String forename);

Although after creating a native image with ./gradlew bootBuildImage the following runtime error is thrown.

Application run failed
