Hi All,
Currently, GenModuleInfoSource.java does not allow you to merge extra
module-info files into the primary module-info file (for a given module)
at build time.
This tool intends to augment platform-specific
exports/opens/uses/provides but not requires. It was a design choice
we made that JDK modules are expected to have the same dependences for
all platforms.
Right, more specifically the `requires transitive` should never be
different.
If there is use-case where the implementation is so different that it
needs `requires` in the .extra file then it can be done but the
augmenting would need to be done before the build computes the ordering
that the modules are compiled (the modules are compiled in reserve
topological order as Mandy knows).
