Java module or automatic module name for SolrJ

[Thomas Heigl <th...@umschalt.com>]

Hi all,

I'm in the process of migrating our main application to Java Modules.

Maven currently complains very loudly about any libraries used that have no
module-info or automatic module name. SolrJ currently has neither:

[WARNING] * Required filename-based automodules detected:
solr-solrj-9.7.0.jar

Are there plans to fully modularize Solr?

In any case, it would make sense to add an automatic module name to SolrJ
since it is the component of Solr most users will depend upon. Would you
accept a PR for this?

Yeah, we would definitely accept contributions in this area.

There might be issues with package-directories being overloaded across the
solr modules, but that might be something we can fix in 10, if required for
this.
