    • Affects Version/s: 11.0.2
    • Component/s: tools
    • Environment:

      When creating a Multi-Release jar, it is allowed to have a module descriptor in the versioned-folder and not in the root of the jar.

      e.g.
      some/Util.class
      META-INF/versions/11/module-info.class
      META-INF/versions/11/some/Util.class

      When trying to generate javadoc for such jar, it'll exit with the message: error: module not found: <some.modulename>

      Moving the module descriptor to the root will make it succeed.
