javapackager/ant issue

[Chris Bensen]

Hi Alan,

The module jdk.management.jfr is considered a redistributable module to the Java Packager so if you are packaging a non-modular jar this will be required. Internal implementation detail, the list of modules in this same category are located in jdk.packager/classes/jdk/packager/internal/resources/tools/redistributable-files/redistributable.list

Couple questions.

1. Why isn’t jdk.management.jfr.jmod present?
2. I assume you are bundling a non-modular jar?

Two options I’m pretty sure will work without seeing your project or having answers to these questions:

1. Make jdk.managemnt.jfr.jmod present in the jmods directory.
2. Turn your non-modular jar into a modular jar and unless you specifically require the module jdk.managemnt.jfr, it will not be linked in my jlink.
