Mac java app hangs on start when accessibility enabled

Multi tool use
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
I have a javafx application which i launch with the help of a .app bundle (created with install4j). The .jar launch perfectly in command line or in eclipse but when i use the .app, it hangs for at least 1 minute (the computer freeze) and finaly finish booting after many other hangs. My app require to be added in Security->Accessibility (assistive device). If the app is not added, it will boot perfectly until it ask for the security clearance. Once i add it, it hangs at the very start even before the splashscreen. Any ideas?
Edit : It works when i launch the javaApplicationStub directly.

Do you have an auto-update checker running at startup?

The auto-update from install4j, nope.

So you add your own launcher on Security & Privacy->Accessibility->Privacy and that causes the problem?

Yes exactly, if i run the applicationStub or the .jar alone it works.

So what does your application do with the additional privileges that could cause this issue?
