I have a simple Spring Boot / Spring MVC + Thymeleaf application, which injects a custom Map from application.yaml into the Thymeleaf model.

custom map props.apps in application.yaml:

props:
  apps:
    app1:
      display-name: App 1
    app2:
      display-name: App 2

@ConfigurationProperties classes (incl. @NestedConfigurationProperty):

@Configuration
@ConfigurationProperties(prefix = "props")
public class MyProperties {
	@NestedConfigurationProperty
	private Map<String, MyApp> apps;
        // getter / setter
}

@Configuration
@ConfigurationProperties
public class MyApp {
	private String displayName;
        // getter / setter
}

Spring MVC controller with Thymeleaf:

@Controller
public class ThymeleafMvcController {
        // .. autowired constructor with MyProperties attribute `props`

	@GetMapping("/")
	public String greeting(Model model) {
		model.addAttribute("apps", props.getApps());
		return "view";
	}
}

The view itself uses the map to render some content, view.html excerpt:

<body>
	<p>Apps: </p>
	<ul>
		<li th:each="app: ${apps}" th:id="'item-' + ${app.key}">
			<span th:text="${app.value.displayName}"></span>
		</li>
	</ul>
</body>

This is all working fine, but stops to work, if I'm building the app as a native image (with spring-boot-maven-plugin:build-image). The aot-processed native image starts fine, however a request to GET / then produces the following error:

org.springframework.expression.spel.SpelEvaluationException: EL1008E: Property or field 'key' cannot be found on object of type 'java.util.LinkedHashMap$Entry' - maybe not public or not valid?
