[jira] [Commented] (MJAVADOC-676) Can't generate javadoc when project has an automatic module name

["Robert Scholte (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-676?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17337402#comment-17337402 ] 

Robert Scholte commented on MJAVADOC-676:
-----------------------------------------

bq. Even worse, this library depends on things that are not able to run on the module path.

I tend to close this as won't fix. If this project isn't "java module" ready, it shouldn't provide an automatic module name.
The main condition (and maybe only reason) to provide an automatic module name is when the project itself is java-module ready, but at least one dependency is an automatic module (either via the manifest or filename).
It would probably be better if javac had already discovered this, but it can't because the maven-jar-plugin provides the automatic-module-name.
