Notable changes:
- New options for the jdeps tool: -genmoduleinfo to generate draft
module-info.java files, and -ct to do a compile-time analysis of
references (i.e., follow all references leaving all classes in each
referenced JAR file) rather than the default run-time analysis
(which only follows references leaving referenced classes)
(changesets 9504efc77849, f99c96f9f9f9).
- jlink no longer does service binding by default (eb223025f7fc).
- Class::getPackage fixed to return null for array types, primitives,
and void (bug reported by Chris Newland) (375469dd1809).
- Improved messages in IllegalAccessExceptions thrown by core
reflection (d79e9bf2bd4e).
- java -verbose now works with -Xpatch (26f5411f52f4).
- The special token ALL-SYSTEM can be used with the -addmods option
to add all system modules (611f51c4a887).
- New methods Module::{addUses,canUse}, which are dynamic equivalents
of service-use clauses in module declarations (cdaf9fbbbc81).
This build also includes all changes in JDK 9 build 86.
