[slf4j-dev] [JIRA] (SLF4J-428) automatic module name for jul-to-slf4j contains illegal token

[QOS.CH (JIRA)]

Peter-Josef Meisch commented on SLF4J-428:
------------------------------------------

_to_ was in Java 9 a restricted keyword; see [http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mr/jigsaw/spec/java-se-9-jls-diffs.pdf,] section 3.9, or in short Mark Reinhold's answer in SO: [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36322223/new-keywords-in-java-9|https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36322223/new-keywords-in-java-9.] and using it in a module name produced an error when Java 9 came out.

> the automatic module name that is created in Java 9 for the jul-to-slf4 jar is _jul.to.slf4j at 1.8.0-beta1_. This contains the token *to* which is a reserved word in Java 9 so the generated name cannot be used in requires statements in modul-info.java files of projects using jul-to-slf4j and inhibits migration of projects to Java 9.
> This should be modified by adding
> {{Automatic-Module-Name: jul_to_slf4j}}
> to the manifest for the archive.
