[jira] [Created] (MJLINK-36) Use JLink via ToolProvider

Robert Scholte created MJLINK-36:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Use JLink via ToolProvider
                 Key: MJLINK-36
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJLINK-36
             Project: Maven JLink Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Robert Scholte


Especially Windows is having issues with long paths. Providing this option wll pick up the jlink tool via the ToolProvider, so you don't have to start a new jvm to use jlink.
See https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/api/jdk.jlink-summary.html
I would suggest that if toolchains isn't used, the ToolProvider should be used instead.
