Project Jigsaw: Early-Access Builds available on jdk9.java.net/jigsaw

[Rahman USTA]

Hello all;

That is great to see Jigsaw in Action!!

I tried http://openjdk.java.net/projects/jigsaw/quick-start and followed
the paths below;

Compiling Module

cd 001
javac -d mods/com.greetings src/com.greetings/module-info.java
src/com.greetings/com/greetings/Main.java

Running Module

java -modulepath mods -m com.greetings/com.greetings.Main

Linking Module

jar --create --archive=mlib/com.greetings.jar
--main-class=com.greetings.Main -C mods/com.greetings .

Creating archieve

jlink --modulepath %JAVA_HOME%/jmods;mlib --addmods com.greetings
--output greetingsapp

After last step, greetingsapp folder generated with all Jigsaw modules. How
can I include just base mod or other compact mods ?

Thanks.
