Description

org.apache.commons.lang3.builder.ReflectionToStringBuilder#appendFieldsIn uses following method
AccessibleObject.setAccessible(fields, true);

It will throw exception when it is not possible to perform action. I think, better approach - just to skip not accessible fields and report only accessible once. Since Java 9 there is a method trySetAccessible for that.
