Java 9: run legacy jar - java

I have a jar built before Java 9. I'm trying to run a class that is in that jar using Java 9.
From all I read about automatic modules, this should work:
java -p lib/Legacy-1.3.0.jar -m Legacy/com.blah.MyClass
But instead I get this:
Error: Unable to initialize main class com.blah.MyClass in module module Legacy
Caused by: module Legacy: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
Yes, com.blah.MyClass is in Legacy. Can I run a class from an automatic module? Why is the word module repeated twice in that error message above?
If I run java --list-modules -p lib/Legacy-1.3.0.jar I see:
Legacy#1.3.0 file://path/to/jar/Legacy-1.3.0.jar automatic
If I run jdeps --generate-module-info . lib/Legacy-1.3.0.jar, I get:
module Legacy {
requires java.logging;
requires transitive java.activation;
requires transitive java.xml;
requires transitive java.xml.bind;
requires transitive java.xml.ws;
exports com.blah;
}

StreamSource - which module for module-info?

Using javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource in a very simple program.
Using Eclipse and Java 13.
Configured Java Build Path Modulepath to contain JRE SystemLibrary [JavaSE-13] .
I have added requires java.base; to module-info.java.
But still: Eclipse cannot compile that class:
The type javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource is not accessible
What do I miss?
As documented by StreamSource, that class is in the java.xml module:
Which means to use StreamSource in your module you need the following module-info:
module <your-module-name> {
requires java.xml;
// other requires, exports, opens, uses, and provides directives (as needed)
}
Note you don't need to include requires java.base; as that module is implicitly required by every module, similar to how you don't need to import classes from the java.lang package.

As I understand this exception there is something wrong with my module setup, but I am not clear what I need to change:
Add additional modules to --add-modules and which?
Add --add-opens to the command with which modules
Something completely different?
TL;DR: You need to make sure javafx.media is resolved as a module from the module-path. You can do this by either:
Including it in the VM arguments: --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.media
Or making your own code modular, adding an appropriate requires javafx.media; directive to your module descriptor, and using --module to launch your application.
If you're not sure how or where to set the VM arguments in your IDE and/or build tool, check out Getting Started with JavaFX.
The Problem
The error is related to the Java Platform Module System, added in Java 9. If you're not aware of what modules are and how they work, check out this blog: Understanding Java 9 Modules. Here's a small excerpt:
Modularity adds a higher level of aggregation above packages. The key new language element is the module—a uniquely named, reusable group of related packages, as well as resources (such as images and XML files) and a module descriptor specifying
the module’s name
the module’s dependencies (that is, other modules this module depends on)
the packages it explicitly makes available to other modules (all other packages in the module are implicitly unavailable to other modules)
the services it offers
the services it consumes
to what other modules it allows reflection
With the introduction of modules, JavaFX was also modularized. It is now made up of seven modules, as can be seen by its Javadoc. These modules share some of their internals between themselves, but not with application developers. This is accomplished through qualified exports/opens directives.
Your Error
This is your error:
java.lang.IllegalAccessError: class com.sun.media.jfxmediaimpl.NativeMediaManager (in unnamed module #0x4d7be377) cannot access class com.sun.glass.utils.NativeLibLoader (in module javafx.graphics) because module javafx.graphics does not export com.sun.glass.utils to unnamed module #0x4d7be377
It's telling you a class in the unnamed module is attempting to access a class in a different, named module: javafx.graphics. However, the latter module does not export the needed package to at least the unnamed module. Looking at the error message and the given class names, we can deduce that the class in the unnamed module is part of JavaFX's media implementation. This suggests the class should be in the javafx.media module. Then why does the error mention the unnamed module?
The unnamed module is the module all classes on the class-path belong to. What this means is that the javafx.media module was put on the class-path and lost its identity. A consequence of this is that all the qualified exports/opens directives declared by the javafx.graphics module which grant the javafx.media module the necessary access no longer apply—hence the IllegalAccessError.
But... You Used the Module-Path
From the command line you provided in your question we can see the javafx-media-11.jar file was placed on the module-path (-p). So what is the problem? The problem is caused by placing the media JAR file on both the module-path and the class-path, while simultaneously failing to ensure the javafx.media module is resolved as a module.
The algorithm for module resolution is described by the java.lang.module package documentation. Basically, it starts with a set of root modules and then recursively enumerates the requires directives. The root modules are determined by the --add-modules and --module arguments. Your code isn't modular, meaning you don't use --module, and you have:
--add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.graphics
In other words, none of the root modules directly or indirectly require the javafx.media module, thus it is never resolved. Since the classes are also on the class-path they're still found, but now in the unnamed module. If you had not placed the JavaFX dependencies on the class-path as well then you'd be getting a ClassNotFoundException.
The Solution
The solution is simple: Make sure the javafx.media module is resolved. There are at least two ways to accomplish this:
Include the module in your --add-modules argument.
--add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.media
Note you don't need to specify the javafx.graphics module as it'll be pulled in implicitly by the other modules; both javafx.controls and javafx.media require javafx.graphics. The same general reasoning also applies to the javafx.base module in this case.
The Getting Started with JavaFX guides show how to configure the VM options for JavaFX in each of the major IDEs (i.e. IntelliJ, Eclipse, and NetBeans) and build tools (i.e. Maven and Gradle).
Make your own code modular and add the necessary requires directives.
module app {
requires javafx.controls;
requires javafx.media;
// replace with your Application class' package
exports com.example.app to javafx.graphics;
}
Then make sure to launch your application with --module.
Notice the qualified exports to javafx.graphics. This is required in order for JavaFX to reflectively instantiate your application class. There are similar requirements (qualified opens) for FXML controllers and other APIs which require private reflective access.
There is another option: Place everything on the class-path, including the JavaFX modules, and ignore JPMS modules completely. If you do this your main-class must not be a subclass of Application. You'd have to create a separate launcher class that simply launches JavaFX. Warning: This approach is not supported.
If you use Maven, you can see how to rely on the JavaFX media module here as a dependency here:
JavaFX media player import (Maven)
If you're using VSCode, here's a simple solution to your problem:
In the java proyect exist a folder called .vscode, inside this exist a .json file called launch.json.
directory: Image
launch.json:
{
"version": "0.2.0",
"configurations": [
{
"type": "java",
"name": "Launch Main",
"request": "launch",
"vmArgs": "--module-path /Users/ASUS/javafx-sdk-16/lib --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml",
"mainClass": "main.java.Main",
"projectName": "MorseJavaFx_41229da3"
},
{
"type": "java",
"name": "Launch Current File",
"request": "launch",
"mainClass": "${file}"
}
]
}
So, in the line "vmArgs", you must add javafx.media to the final and inside the quotes, like this:
"vmArgs": "--module-path /Users/ASUS/javafx-sdk-16/lib --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml, javafx.media"
Enjoy.😄

How to let a java class on classpath access a class belonging to a module on module-path

I am trying out the various access rules about who can access and what and I saw this statement in The State of the module system document,
The unnamed module reads every other module. Code in any type loaded from the class path will thus be able to access the exported types of all other readable modules, which by default will include all of the named, built-in platform modules.
So, I wrote the following code to test it out with the following structure:
moduleA/modA.A --> automod/automod.Foo --> nonmodular.Junk --> moduleX/modX.X
Basically,
moduleA's modA.A calls a method on a non-modular class automod.Foo. automod.Foo is packaged into automod.jar and put on the module-path. module-info for moduleA has requires automod; clause. This works fine, as expected.
automod.Foo calls a method on nonmodular.Junk class. nonmodular.Junk is packaged into nonmodular.jar and put on classpath. This works fine, as expected.
nonmodular.Junk calls a method on moduleX's modX.X. modX.X is packaged into moduleX.jar.
It is this step that has a problem. It works if I put moduleX.jar on classpath but not if I put moduleX.jar on module-path. (module-info for moduleX does have exports modX; clause.)
In other words, the following command works:
java --module-path moduleA.jar;automod.jar; -classpath nonmodular.jar;moduleX.jar --module moduleA/modA.A
With the following output:
In modA.A.main() Calling automod.Foo()
In automod.Foo()
In modA.A.main() Calling automod.foo.main()
In automod.Foo.main() Calling nonmodular.Junk()
In automod.Foo.main() Calling nonmodular.Junk.main()
In nonmodular.Junk.main calling new modX.X()
In modX.X()
But the following command doesn't work:
java --module-path moduleA.jar;automod.jar;moduleX.jar -classpath nonmodular.jar; --module moduleA/modA.A
Here is the output:
In modA.A.main() Calling automod.Foo()
In automod.Foo()
In modA.A.main() Calling automod.foo.main()
In automod.Foo.main() Calling nonmodular.Junk()
In automod.Foo.main() Calling nonmodular.Junk.main()
In nonmodular.Junk.main calling new modX.X()

Any idea why? Any class loaded from the classpath should be able to access any classes exported by a module.
When you start a Java application with the --module command, the value you pass is a "root" module. The same is true of modules added via --add-modules. The module system determines the entire module graph from these root modules. In other words, it reads the module-info file, finds the requires directives, and then searches the modulepath for those required modules. It does this transitively. Some modules also declare one or more uses directives on a service. Any modules on the modulepath that provides any of those services will also be loaded, regardless of if any module requires them.
This means if there's a module on the modulepath that isn't required by any loaded module and doesn't provide any services needed by any loaded module then said module won't be loaded. If you're interested in seeing what modules are resolved you can use the following command:
java --show-module-resolution --dry-run -p [MODULEPATH] -m [MODULE]
In your case I can only assume that none of your other modules require modularX, so when its on the modulepath it doesn't get loaded. However, when its on the classpath things work differently and its found by your non-modular code that's also on the classpath. You can still use the modulepath though, just make sure your moduleX module is loaded. This can be forced by using --add-modules:
java -p moduleA.jar;automod.jar;moduleX.jar --add-modules moduleX -cp nonmodular.jar -m moduleA/modA.A
Note you can also limit the modules via --limit-modules.

Spring Boot 2.1 with Java 11: Unable to resolve persistence unit root URL

I have an application, that uses Spring Boot and Spring Data JPA with annotation-only based configuration for its persistence layer. I've started migrating this application to the latest Spring Boot version (2.1.x) along with Java (OpenJDK) 11. After configuring the module descriptors, the application starts up, but when Spring reaches the point where it wants to build up the persistence layer, the application stops with the following exception:
Caused by: javax.persistence.PersistenceException: Unable to resolve persistence unit root URL

This issue only happens when I try to run the application in IntelliJ IDEA, which starts the JVM by configuring the module path, instead of the classpath (as expected). When I try to run the application packaged as executable jar, the issue is gone, but as I noticed, the module descriptors are basically ignored when the application runs from the executable jar...
What I've managed to discover is that the org.springframework.orm.jpa.persistenceunit.DefaultPersistenceUnitManager finds the entities, and also stores them in a persistence unit, but after that, it tries to determine the persistence unit root URL, and that's the point where the failure occurs. Without the module descriptors, the application has a classpath, and that's enough for the DefaultPersistenceUnitManager, it will use the target directory (running from IDEA) or the persistence Maven module's JAR (running from executable JAR).
I assume there's something I'm missing from the module descriptor, so just for the reference, it looks like this:
open module leaflet.app.backend.persistence {

requires java.validation;
requires org.apache.commons.lang3;

}
If anyone might have something in mind about this issue, please don't hesisate to write it down - I'm basically stuck at this point. Thank you very much in advance!

When my project depends on javax.transaction-api:1.2, it does compile without any error. My module-info.java contains:
module my.component {
requires javax.transaction.api;
// other required modules ...
}
However, when my project depends on javax.transaction-api:1.3, the java compiler yields an assertion error. Note that in that case, my module-info.java contains:
module my.component {
requires java.transaction;
// other required modules ...
}
(since the automatic module name of javax.transaction-api is set to java.transaction in the manifest of the 1.3 version)
The assertion error is:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.AssertionError

This looks like a conflict between the java.transaction module name used by default in the JRE, and the module name declared in the manifest of the javax.transaction-api:1.3 jar file.
Is there a compiler option to prevent this assertion error from occurring?
