Tibor Digana commented on SUREFIRE-1262: ---------------------------------------- [~rfscholte] Yesterday I downloaded JDK9 from OpenJDK and installed it. I have implemented a temporary fix but the property is unrecognized: Forking command line: cmd.exe /X /C ""D:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9\bin\java" -Xpatch D:\vcs\zmaz6/target/test-classes -jar D:... Unrecognized option: -Xpatch Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine. Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit. > Add modulepath support > ---------------------- > > Key: SUREFIRE-1262 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1262 > Project: Maven Surefire > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Robert Scholte > Assignee: Tibor Digana > Fix For: 2.19.2 > > > With the Jigsaw project Java9 is extended with a modulepath. This means that > surefire should be executed in a different way. > When working with a modulepath, the Classpath in the MANIFEST of the > executable jar will be ignored, you need need to add everything on > commandline. > Just like javadoc, the java executable has an {{@<file>}} option, where you > can add arguments per line. So this is the new preferred way to build the > module-path. > IIUC for surefire it is important to add {{-Xpatch target/test-classes}} > which makes it possible to use the same packages as target/classes. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
