// gives an explicit name).

// Inspect a module JAR
//   jar --describe-module --file app.jar

# jdeps: analyze dependencies (find unused, list required modules)

# List dependencies of a JAR

# Generate module-info.java for an existing JAR
jdeps --generate-module-info ./out app.jar

# Show which JDK modules a JAR uses
jdeps --print-module-deps --ignore-missing-deps app.jar
# Output: java.base,java.logging,java.sql

# The custom JRE is self-contained:
#   ./custom-jre/bin/app   # launches the app
#   ./custom-jre/bin/java  # the stripped JVM

# Benefits of jlink:
# - Smaller distribution (only needed modules)
# - Faster startup (less to load)
# - No need to install Java on target machine
# - Can cross-target (different OS/arch) with matching jmods

# Common workflow:
# 1. jdeps to find required modules
# 2. jlink to build a custom runtime
# 3. Package app + custom JRE together (Docker image, installer)
