Alan,

Why does the "default discovery process" work  with --classpath, but not
with --processor-module-path?

Is it simply an omission, or is this by design?

If you have `provides javax.annotation.processing.Processor with ...` in your module declaration then it should find it. I just checked this locally and it works as expected. One of your mails said this wasn't working for you, not immediately obvious why from the mails. So if you aren't using `provides` then my understanding is that the processor needs to be specified via -processor but I don't think there is support there for allowing -processor to specify the processor module, hence not clear how it could be resolved.
