List the modules resolved during the application startup

Module Resolution

The module resolution is a two-step process.

  • The first step recursively enumerates the ‘requires’ directives of a set of root modules.
  • If all the enumerated modules are observable, then the second step computes their readability graph. The readability graph embodies how modules depend on each other, which in turn controls access across module boundaries.

One can make use of the debugging flag as mentioned in the java tool documentation by means of a VM argument :

--show-module-resolution

Shows module resolution output during startup.

For example, the option would list out :

  • root module
  • all the modules required and resolved by the root module
  • further bindings used by the above-required modules and
  • successive modules resolved during startup

On running the following command:

Jigsaw git:(master) ✗ ../jdk-9.0.1.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java 
                       --show-module-resolution 
                       -p ../out/production/100DaysOfJava9 
                       -m HundredDaysOfJavaNine/com.stackoverflow.nullpointer.Challenge1

It results in the following:-

root HundredDaysOfJavaNine file:///.../out/production/100DaysOfJava9/

HundredDaysOfJavaNine requires jdk.incubator.httpclient jrt:/jdk.incubator.httpclient
