Re: Tapestry 5.5 beta and Java Modularity

Hmm, thanks for the quick response.

It looks like I will have to try the unpack-all-the-tapestry-jars and 
pack-them-into-a-single-jar as an "automatic module", after all.

I will report back if that is successful.

(This is partly caused by another conflict in our project, with 
javax.xml, that is forcing us to use modules.  Many people may be able 
to use Tapestry as-is by telling their build process to ignore the 
module rules.)
