Overall this look very good. I ran through most of the changes in the jdk repo,
just a few small comments.
1) SuppressWarnings.java typo element - > elementS
38 * However, note that if a warning is suppressed in a {@code
39 * module-info} file, the suppression applies to elementS within the
40 * file and <em>not</em> to types contained within the module.
2) jartool Main.java
Maybe concealedPackages should have a comment about its use ( it is
used in the Validator, and not by Main at all ).
3) MethodHandles.java privateLookupIn
It might be clearer if the third bullet used {@code lookup}, or 'caller lookup’, or ‘given lookup'?
The CALLER lookup has the {@link Lookup#MODULE MODULE} lookup mode.
4) ServiceLoader
{@code ExtendedCodecsFactory}
111 * will be treated as a provider factory and {@code
112 * ExtendedCodecsFactory.provider()} will be invoked to INSTANTIATE the
113 * provider.
Is 'instantiate' strictly true here? Should it simply be ‘return'
206 * <li> If a named module declares more than one provider then the providers
207 * are located in the order that they appear in the {@code provides} table of
208 * the {@code Module} class file attribute ({@code module-info.class}). </li>
Wow. I assume the JLS, or otherwise, will specify that the order in which the
providers are listed in the module-info be preserved, no? Maybe this item could
mention that. The class file reference can still be kept, but seems a bit low-level
for developers.
