The hazards of reflection and static linking (as appears to be your
situation) is that needed classes may not be linked into the final
executable if they aren't directly referenced in code.
How are you linking your final executable? If you are using archive (.a)
files, you can place -Wl,--whole-archive .... -Wl,--no-whole-archive
around libraries you need to link in their entirety.
The downside is that your executable may end up significantly larger.
