Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "com.kitfox.svg.SVGDiagram.setIgnoringClipHeuristic(boolean)" because "diagram" is null

I'm updating my Gradle Plugin with all of the latest dependency, and I'm required to use JDK 17 now, which might explain the following:

Facing the same issue using guru.nidi:graphviz-java:0.18.1 and org.graalvm.js:js:22.3.2 after Java 17 migration. I am using gradle 7.6.1.
