-------------------------------------
Summary: Provide kafka-client library as a proper java Jigsaw
module
Key: KAFKA-15516
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-15516
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Wish
Components: clients
Affects Versions: 3.5.1
Reporter: Chad Preisler
When a client application depends on the kafka-client library the jlink tool
can not be used to generate a custom JDK because the client jar is treated as
an automatic module.
The module-info class can be generated for the JAR files using the jdeps tool
or a module-info can be created by hand for each jar. I believe the current
structure of the Kafka code can be used as is.
It would be ideal if the Kafka build could properly bundle module-info in the
client jar.
