Description
Assume a JPMS build which depends on Scala 3.
dependencies {
…
implementation 'org.scala-lang:scala3-library_3:3.2.1'
}
Such a build needs to patch the org.scala.lang.scala3.library module, provided by scala3-library, because the module exports classes in the scala
package and depends on scala-library, which also contains classes in the scala
package. So right now I have to
modularity.patchModule("org.scala.lang.scala3.library", "scala-library-2.13.10.jar")
to avoid errors like "error: module scala.library reads package scala from both org.scala.lang.scala3.library and scala.library". However, it would be much user friendly, if the second parameter of patchModule()
, could be provided as POM coordinate containing the group id and artifact id (":"), and not the version. For example
modularity.patchModule("org.scala.lang.scala3.library", "org.scala-lang:scala-library")
thus avoiding having to specify a concrete version, which may changes once I bump the version of scala3-library.
