Hello,
current spec [1] now contains following assertions related to grammar:
A compilation unit (JLS 7.3) may contain a module declaration, in
which case the filename of the compilation unit is typically
|module-info.java|.
CompilationUnit:
[PackageDeclaration] {ImportDeclaration} {TypeDeclaration}
ModuleDeclaration
These assertions allows to specify any of import, package or type
declarations in any compilation unit, for instance module-info.java is
allowed to contain any of the mentioned declarations. However currently
javac in the latest jigsaw build [2] reports an error on such cases
provided they are compiled in module mode. For example if we have
following directory structure:
mod\module-info.java:
module mod {
exports pkg;
}
mod\pkg\module-info.java:
package pkg;
class C {
}
then compiling it by following command line with javac from [2]:
javac -modulesourcepath . mod\module-info.java mod\pkg\module-info.java
causes following output:
mod\pkg\module-info.java:1: error: expected 'module'
package pkg;
^
1 error
The minimized testcase is attached; in order to run it please:
1. Unzip the attached archive to some dir on Windows machined, say
directory A;
2. Rename A\test\test_bat to A\test\test.bat;
3. Modify test.bat by changing JDK_HOME variable to point to your jigsaw
JDK 9 installation directory;
4. Run test.bat.
It seems to me either spec or implementation issue, could you please
tell if you agree.
