How to access com.sun.webkit.network.CookieManager at JDK 10?

[Nir Lisker]

Sorry, my reply was not phrased well. Whether you declare a
module-info.java or not, you still have to add-exports either via command
line or during runtime. What I meant with not needing to declare a
dependency in module-info.java is that you don't need a 'requires' (or
add-reads) because the unnamed module reads everything be default.

So, in your case you need a command line "--add-exports
javafx.web/com.sun.webkit.network=my.app.Test" (or the equivalent runtime
code) and "requires javafx.web" in the module-info.java. The latter is
what's not needed if you don't declare a module.
