Module jdk.jlink

module jdk.jlink
Defines the jlink tool for creating run-time images, the jmod tool for creating and manipulating JMOD files, and the jimage tool for inspecting the JDK implementation-specific container file for classes and resources.

This module provides the equivalent of command-line access to the jlink and jmod tools via the ToolProvider SPI. Instances of the tools can be obtained by calling ToolProvider.findFirst or the service loader with the name "jlink" or "jmod" as appropriate.

jimage only exists as a command-line tool, and does not provide any direct API.
