joerg-wille opened a new issue #50:
URL: https://github.com/apache/felix-atomos/issues/50


   The substrate 
[documentation](https://github.com/apache/felix-atomos/blob/master/atomos.examples/SUBSTRATE.md)
 states that Atomos Module support expects to have full introspection of the 
Java Platform Module System. Because this was not available in older versions 
of GraalVM, workarounds were introduced in Atomos which reads bundle 
information at runtime from an extra atomos_lib folder with copies of all 
bundle JARs or from a bundles.index file which gets generated by the 
atomos-maven-plugin.
   With the [ongoing effort](https://github.com/oracle/graal/issues/3935) 
GraalVM Native Image [version 
22](https://github.com/graalvm/graalvm-ce-builds/releases/tag/vm-22.0.0.2) 
brings functionality for required introspection at runtime. If Atomos makes use 
of the information provided by [ModuleLayer API 
](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/api/java/lang/ModuleLayer.html) the 
workarounds can be eliminated.
   I have created a demo that 
[shows](https://github.com/joerg-wille/NativeImageUsingJPMS/blob/main/README.md)
 possible runtime information for modules from a native application.
