My goal is to package an application into a modular runtime image bundled with a custom JRE, using jlink. My app is a simple "hello world" Java Standard Edition app, with a dependency to Guava. I use the JDK 11.
Basically I try to reproduce this tutorial by Baeldung , but with NetBeans, Maven to manage the dependencies and the Maven Compiler Plugin version 3.8.1 for the build with the module system.
The directory structure:
The module-info.java file:
module TestwithJLink {
requires guava;
exports net.clementlevallois.testwithjlink;
}
Controller.java:
package net.clementlevallois.testwithjlink;
import com.google.common.collect.HashMultiset;
import com.google.common.collect.Multiset;
public class Controller {
/**
* @param args the command line arguments
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
Multiset<String> test = HashMultiset.create();
test.add("hello");
test.add("world");
System.out.println("test: "+ test.toString());
}
}
The pom.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

</project>
But it creates compiled classes, no jars or modules. So I can't go further (analyze the modules of the jar with jdeps, then using jlink). I must be missing something obvious but what?
If you want to create a JAR file, then go to the root folder containing pom.xml in your terminal and type:
mvn package
This will create a JAR in target folder. Now change your path in terminal to target folder and Run the JAR file using:
java -jar {file-name-version}.jar
Finally got it. The scenario:
You want to package your app in a way that respects the modular system. So:
<goal>resolve</goal>
in the maven-dependency-plugin
makes sure your dependencies are packaged with their module-info.java file, which is not the case otherwise! ( see here ). You can run this app directly with the run icon in NetBeans, or:
java --module-path lib --module NameOfYourModule
