Jars on the classpath get automatically wrapped into 1 virtual module at runtime. My understanding was that all you need to to do is to call a command line app to make a module from a jar (which although autogenerates the module-info.java). There are chances although that I completely screwed this up. There's been a ton of informations on all this stuff and without at least having had a hands on it's really easy to mix things up.
