Karl Pauls commented on FELIX-5710:
-----------------------------------
I made some progress via the sub issues. In a nutshell (and this needs to be
documented), I reworked how we define the framework exports for java9 and
calculated a new (hopefully more correct) list of exports. This is coupled with
a simple "detection" of actually available modules. As a result, we should now
export the available packages correctly when started with just "java -jar" or
with "java --add-modules java.se.ee -jar" as well as making javafx available
depending on whether it is actually there or not.
Furthermore, when we get started on a subset of java.se we should correctly
expose what is available as well. Finally, this method can actually be extended
by users so that if they have additional modules on the module path they can
add the definitions as well (using properties). I'll post another comment
explaining how to do this soon (which subsequently probably should be added to
the documentation).
