Rick Hillegas commented on DERBY-6945:
--------------------------------------
Thanks, Stephen. I have been stuck in the mind-set that a jar file corresponds
to a high level module. But that might not necessarily be so. Do you think that
something would break if derbyclient.jar contained two modules, one
corresponding to the client subtree and the other to the jdbc subtree?

> Key: DERBY-6945
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6945
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 10.13.1.2
> Reporter: Rick Hillegas
> Attachments: derby-6945-01-aa-remove_derbyPreBuild_dep.diff,

> Once we commit to building with Java 9 (see DERBY-6856), we should consider
> re-packaging Derby as a set of jigsaw modules. This would result in a
> different set of release artifacts. This might be a good opportunity to
> address the Tomcat artifactory issues raised by issue DERBY-6944.
