My project uses Mapsforge library for displaying maps, and JavaFX for GUI.
There is a way to compile JavaFX with javafx-maven-plugin and stay in the unmodular paradigm, but it seems against the best practices.
The problem is that mapsforge has split packages:
org.mapsforge.map.rendertheme is accessible from both mapsforge.map, mapsforge.themes modules which makes it impossible to require both of them in module-info:
java: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
Modules mapsforge.map and mapsforge.themes export package org.mapsforge.map.rendertheme to module org.postgresql.jdbc
After reading answers to similar questions, I realized that you can add libraries as JARs to the classpath but not as module dependencies. The question is - how you do it correctly in Intellij?
I put three mapsforge jars to ROOT/lib folder, and added all of them as project libraries.
I also tried Modules -> Dependencies -> Add Jars or Libraries.
The problem is that I still can't reference classes in those jars:
java: package org.mapsforge.core.graphics is not visible (package org.mapsforge.core.graphics is declared in the unnamed module, but module rfinder does not read it)
How can I make the unnamed module with external jars visible to rfinder?
PS: I use maven, and maven-oriented solution would be the best, but I don't know the way to add maven packages to classpath
