Compile Jigsaw project with Intellij IDEA supported structure

[Trisha Gee]

Hi Alexandru,

The structure in IntelliJ IDEA isn't as strict as that, it doesn't require
you to have a "src" folder.  For example you could have:

com.myModule.m1
    /module-info.java
    /com.myModule.m2
        /Main.java

com.myModule.m2
    /module-info.java
    /com.myModule.m2
        /Main.java

You just need to mark com.myModule.m1 and com.myModule.m2 as your sources
root instead of having a src folder as the sources root.

Hello,



In order to make my Jigsaw project be supported by Intellij IDEA 2017.2, I
need a structure like this, according to IDEA Video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WL48zkLvK3I (00:10):



com.myModule.m1

                            /src

                                  /module-info.java

                                 /com.myModule.m2

                                                                  /Main.java



com.myModule.m2

                            /src

                                  /module-info.java

                                 /com.myModule.m2

                                                                  /Main.java





How do I perform multi-module compilation in this case using the
--module-source-path option?



As far as I know, to perform multi-module compilation, the source code
directory should have the same name like the name of the module.

In this case, I have the ?src? folder there which does not comply to this
rule.





Best regards
