Robert Lazarski commented on AXIS2-6040:
----------------------------------------

Follow-up: commit 93a795320e fixes two issues caught in post-push review:

  ▎ 1. transport-local uses <packaging>bundle</packaging> (OSGi), so the maven-jar-plugin config I added was silently ignored — the    
  maven-bundle-plugin generates the manifest, not maven-jar-plugin. Moved the Automatic-Module-Name into the bundle plugin's 
  <instructions> block where it actually gets written. The other 23 modules use standard JAR packaging and are unaffected.             
  ▎ 2. Removed a proprietary organization reference from the parent POM developer block — unrelated to this issue but caught during the
   review.                                                                                                                             
  
  ▎ The jar --describe-module verification I mentioned should now work correctly for all 24 modules including transport-local. GHA CI  
  will confirm.

>             Project: Axis2
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: kernel
>    Affects Versions: 1.8.2
>            Reporter: Wolfgang Knauf
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: 2.0.1

>
> After Java9 module system compatibility was fixed through https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4311, I used Eclipse to create a "module-info.java" to my small sample project.
> This is the resulting module-info.java file:
> {{module myprojectname}}
> {
> {{  exports my.own.project.package;}}
> {{  requires axiom.api;}}
> {{  requires axis2.adb;}}
> {{  requires axis2.kernel;}}
> {{  requires commons.logging;}}
> {{  requires jakarta.activation;}}
> {{  requires java.rmi;}}
> {{  requires java.xml;}}
> {{}}}
>  
> This results in four eclipse warnings:
> {{Name of automatic module 'axiom.api' is unstable, it is derived from the module's file name.}}
> {{Name of automatic module 'axis2.adb' is unstable, it is derived from the module's file name.}}
> {{Name of automatic module 'axis2.kernel' is unstable, it is derived from the module's file name.}}
> {{Name of automatic module 'commons.logging' is unstable, it is derived from the module's file name.}}
> As far as I understand it, it would be sufficient to add a "Automatic-Module-Name" entry to Manifest.mf for the Axis2 jars- see e.g. [https://github.com/ReactiveX/RxJava/issues/5618]
