pgjdbc-ng missing module-info #464
Description
First thank you for all the effort regarding this driver. It is so much better than the standard jdbc driver and the speed and stability is much better.
The only thing which is missing is a multi-release jar with all dependencies included so that desktop/mobile applications which must to use jlink for distribution can use the driver as well.
I had the following situation where a module-info inside of pgjdbc-ng would saved me alot of time:
The task was to migrate an application from Javafx8 to Javafx11 including to change the JDK to 11 as well. For that I have to use jlink because the tool jpackager can only work with a jlink image. In order to get a jlink image I have to create for every library which is not modularized a module-info.java.
For pgjdbc-ng driver which is using netty, this was very difficult because all netty libs are not modularized yet.
Here is the maven code and org.moditect (maven module to create module-info files) config to get a working pgjdbc-ng module. This was a very complicated task from my perspective and I hope you can either add this to the wiki or create a multi-release jar with all dependency's.
Here is the maven code to get the lib (sorry for bad format):
