Hello

If I'm understanding right, Maven put a dependency on the module-path instead of the class-path only if:

1. the dependency is modularized (contains a "module-info" file), and
2. the project using the dependency is itself modularized.

Condition #1 is fine, but #2 is problematic. If a dependency is on the classpath, then the dependency is loaded as an unnamed module, its "module-info" file is ignored and the services that it contains are not discovered. Not only the services that the non-modularized project may be looking for (I understand that it may not work), but the modularized dependency itself cannot find anymore its own services, or the services of its modularized dependencies, if those dependencies were not on the module-path.

Is there a way to force Maven to ignore condition #2 and use only condition #1 for deciding whether to put a dependency on the module path or not?

    Thanks,
