JPMS: Wrong export in module-info

See original GitHub issue

I am using JPMS and unable to import faker classes and they are not exported. Instead I see wrong exports in the decompiled class. PFA the screenshot

module com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation {
    exports com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation;

    opens com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation;
}

I suspect that the module-info.class comes from a shadowed jackson dependency and is added automatically by shadow plugin. The way I see going about this issue is we need to add a module-info.class manually for JPMS support in kotlin-faker, and also probably add explicit support for java9 (via own jar that would include this module-info.class?) As I mentioned, there’s no support for java modules now in kotlin-faker, so this needs to be added. I’ll need to experiment a bit with this.

Hi @overfullstack , thanks for reporting this.

I don’t think I’ve ever explicitly added modules support to faker - a lot of the code I work with is still stuck on java 8… 😄 But this looks very weird nevertheless, not sure why the module would be registered with this name… I’ll take a closer look at it as soon as I have some time, but also feel free to submit a PR with a fix if you want to.
