JavaFileManager.getModuleLocation() problem

[Konstantin Barzilovich]

Thanks for the answer.
I managed to find system module with SYSTEM_MODULES.
But I still don't understand how to find my own module.
As I understand, I need to have path to compiled module in modulepath.
I tried both MODULE_SOURCE_PATH and MODULE_PATH, but I failed.
Could you please explain where module should be in order to be found.
