| This folder contains lists of JVM flags, related to JEP 396: Strongly Encapsulate JDK Internals by Default |
| |
| NetBeans breaks the encapsulation of the java module system in several places, |
| for example by reflectively accessing some internals of the javac API. |
| To allow that, JMS requires the JVM (JDK 16+) to be configured with flags specifying the exceptions. |
| |
| example: |
| --add-opens=jdk.compiler/com.sun.tools.javac.api=ALL-UNNAMED |
| |
| This folder is not intended to specify module dependencies. |
| There should be hopefully fewer flags over time, devs are encouraged to shrink |
| the list if possible. Once the NetBeans module system has been made JMS aware, |
| there might be better places for specifying this exceptions. |
| |
| format: |
| the flags are grouped by category, filename specifies the category, one flag per line, no comments or other strings allowed |
| to make usage outside of java programs (e.g CI job configs, copy&paste into maven poms, netbeans.conf) as simple as possible. |
