-------------------------------------
was (Author: singingbush):
Also, it's not like there are no releases that support JDK 8. There's a bunch
of them so making a change to break JDK compatibility moving forward isn't that
big a problem. Seeing as humanity exists on a timeline that continues to move
forward can we please focus on supporting Java features today and for the
future rather than a JDK that was released 8 years ago
> Johnzon should provide Java 9 module information

> Key: JOHNZON-305
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JOHNZON-305
> Project: Johnzon
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core, JAX-RS, JSON-B, Mapper, OSGi, Websocket
> Affects Versions: 1.2.3
> Reporter: Adrian Price
> Priority: Major
>
> Johnzon does not declare any Java 9 modules and consequently it is not usable
> with a modular Java 9+ program*. There are two possible approaches:
> # Add module-info.java files to each of johnzon-core, johnzon-jaxrs,
> johnzon-jsonb, johnzon-json-extras, johnzon-jsonschema, johnzon-mapper,
> johnzon-osgi, johnzon-websocket and possibly johnzon-maven-plugin.
> (Preferred, the 'correct way'.)
> # Configure maven-jar-plugin with an
> archive/manifestEntries/Automatic-Module-Name element. Probably best achieved
> with a plugin element in the parent /johnzon/pom.xml referencing a property
> to be defined in each sub-module (say ${johnzon.module.name}). (Quick 'n
> dirty?)
> I'm not sure, but it might even be appropriate to do both... needs research.
> *You get exceptions like this: 'Unable to make field private final
> javafx.beans.property.BooleanProperty
> io.github.demonfiddler.timer.model.MultiTimerBean.delayStart accessible:
> module io.github.demonfiddler.multitimer does not "opens
> io.github.demonfiddler.timer.model" to unnamed module @22036d57'. Also
> Eclipse problem markers like this: "Name of automatic module 'johnzon.core'
> is unstable, it is derived from the module's file name."
