Gradle not working on Jigsaw

[Stephen Felts]

It's possible to work around the gradle error below by adding
--add-exports-private=java.base/java.io=ALL-UNNAMED to _JAVA_OPTIONS.

It's unfortunate that javac doesn't recognize this option because up until now I had been using one jdk9args file for both java and javac.

The next one that I ran into was a pattern match that needed java.base/java.util.regex.
So the number of these add-exports-private depends on what gradle/groovy code you have in your projects and what underlying java packages they reference.
The list that Kevin sent out in his email yesterday is quite different from what I need.

I'm also running with the daemon so it seems to need  java.base/sun.net.www java.base/sun.net.www.protocol.file java.base/java.lang.invoke.

I have the line

def branch = file('..').name

in build.gradle.

Running 'gradle' on build 140

Jdk-9 - runs fine

JDK-9 Jigsaw gets
* What went wrong:
A problem occurred evaluating root project 'dir'.
> No such property: name for class: java.io.File

To run on Jigsaw, I also need to set _JAVA_OPTIONS to include --add-exports-private=java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED
--add-exports-private=java.base/java.util=ALL-UNNAMED
