273 Optional<String> mainClass = ModuleDescriptor.read(stream).mainClass();
274 if (mainClass.isPresent()) {
275 mainClassName = mainClass.get();
276 }
This should set mainClassName only if the main class is not specified
in the -—launcher option. One may want to create launchers for
multiple entry points.
I think it should validate if the main class is present in the image.
If not found, it should output an error.
Something to be considered in a future release - the existing implementation
creates the launcher scripts as a special case in DefaultImageBuilder.
It seems cleaner to keep DefaultImageBuilder just for the image creation,
i.e. simply write out entries of the ResourcePool to the image.
The launchers could be added to the ResourcePool entries to the
corresponding module by one builtin plugin implementation.
For this issue, keeping the change to minimal is good.
