Module linkage error

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@FroMage] In ceylon.transaction:

module ceylon.transaction "1.1.1" {
// if I comment this out, I get an error
    //shared import javax.transaction.api "1.2";
    shared import org.jboss.narayana.jta "5.1.1.Final";
}

And its test:

module test.ceylon.transaction "1.1.1" {
    import ceylon.transaction "1.1.1";
}

The definition of org.jboss.narayana.jta:

<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.1" name="org.jboss.jboss-transaction-spi" slot="7.1.1.Final">
  <resources>
    <resource-root path="jboss-transaction-spi-7.1.1.Final.jar"/>
  </resources>
  <dependencies>
    <module name="javax.transaction.api" export="false" slot="1.2"/>
    <module name="org.jboss.logging" export="true" slot="3.1.4.GA"/>
  </dependencies>
</module>

And javax.transaction.api:

<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.1" name="javax.transaction.api" slot="1.2">
    <resources>
        <resource-root path="javax.transaction.api-1.2.jar"/>
    </resources>
</module>

The error I get are:

[@FroMage] I guess I'll need some help from @dmlloyd

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@FroMage] Even an upgrade to the latest 1.4.4.Final does not fix this.

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@alesj]
@FroMage imo, you get that same class XAResource from a module and also from JDK. /Cc @dmlloyd

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@FroMage] From what I can see in the debugger, the first time it's loaded by the ModuleClassLoader for javax.transaction.api:1.2, which sounds right. The second time it's loaded as a by-product of defining a class (com.arjuna.ats.jta.resources.LastResourceCommitOptimisation) from org.jboss.jboss-transaction-spi where it fails, but no clue why, my debugger just jumps around randomly.

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@FroMage] @alesj that class is not in the JDK, although its package is.

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@FroMage] AHA, we're getting somewhere. I told the CeylonModuleLoader (@alesj's creation) that the JDK did not have a javax.transaction module with a javax.transaction.xa package (nobody depended on it explicitly), and it fails to link h2 (another module), which does not have a module descriptor and depended on it implicitly (like everyone depends on the JDK). So I assume that for some reason it used to get that dependency (on the jar) via the JDK auto-import (which is surely wrong).

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@FroMage] ARG DAMNIT you're right the JDK does have some stuff in javax.transaction.xa. And yes that includes XAResource:

      491  2015-01-27 00:43   javax/transaction/InvalidTransactionException.class
      494  2015-01-27 00:43   javax/transaction/TransactionRequiredException.class
      500  2015-01-27 00:43   javax/transaction/TransactionRolledbackException.class

      292  2015-01-27 00:42   javax/transaction/xa/Xid.class

But my jars need more than this. So how do I resolve this shit?

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@FroMage] The javax.transaction.api module contains:

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@FroMage] So it's a superset of the JDK's javax.transaction I suppose.

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@alesj] Yup, that javax.transactions is some funky shit ...

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@FroMage] So what am I supposed to do? Exclude some classes from javax.transaction.api so that the JDK parts get picked up? Are they even the same classes?

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@FroMage] Apparently excluding it is not enough since it excludes it from export, but it's still in the module itself.

[CeylonMigrationBot]

[@FroMage] Nope, I can't win this way. Even if I did manage that, I'd have to make the ceylon module depend on the javax.transaction module from the JDK, but it can't because the compiler does not support split packages. OK at this point it's just too damn complicated to fix, I'll move this to 1.3.
