maven-jmod-plugin:3.0.0-alpha-1 give Error create failed. IllegalArgumentException

Question

I was Updating my Java Swing project from 1.8 to Open Source JDK 12. So i create a parent App and then a JLink module app, and add parent to my original project.

When i try to run clean package, I got this error:

Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jmod-plugin:3.0.0-alpha-1:create (default-create) on project viewer: Execution default-create of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jmod-plugin:3.0.0-alpha-1:create failed.

My POM file structure are below.

Thank you

Do you have this project somewhere as example on GitHub or alike? — khmarbaise, Jul 05 '19 at 17:08
Please check the GitHub Link. https://github.com/AKMANSoft/OopenJDK12 — Aqeel Haider, Jul 08 '19 at 10:32
Im using eclipse. I think eclipse doesn't support OpenJDK 12. I set the JRE to 12, but when I force update the project it was reverting back to older version, If I use JDK 9 it works. — Aqeel Haider, Jul 08 '19 at 10:35

According to this, you need to upgrade asm to 7.1. Cause is the Java version as this plugin is designed for Java 9.

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-jmod-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>3.0.0-alpha-2-SNAPSHOT</version>
    <extensions>true</extensions>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.ow2.asm</groupId>
            <artifactId>asm</artifactId>
            <version>7.1</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</plugin>

This worked for me. As stated in this issue, this will be fixed in future releases (s.a. 3.0.0-alpha-2).

How do I get hold of 3.0.0-alpha-2-SNAPSHOT? The maven central repository only lists version 3.0.0-alpha-1 – Michael Ellis Jun 09 '20 at 12:38
[Here](https://builds.apache.org/job/maven-box/job/maven-jmod-plugin/job/master/) you can see the latest build artifacts of the jmod plugin. You can download the latest `.jar` and `.pom` file and install them manually (into `~/.m2/repository/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-jmod-plugin/3.0.0-alpha-2-SNAPSHOT/`). This is of course just a work-around. Hope they'll release it soon. – raphaelmue Jun 12 '20 at 12:34
THANK YOU! I will give that a try! – Michael Ellis Jun 13 '20 at 13:03
For anyone else struggling having downloaded the maven-jmod-plugin-3.0.0-alpha-2-SNAPSHOT.jar as suggested by raphaelmue, I was able to install it with the following maven command: mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=org.apache.maven.plugins \ -DartifactId=maven-jmod-plugin \ -Dversion=3.0.0-alpha-2-SNAPSHOT \ -Dfile=maven-jmod-plugin-3.0.0-alpha-2-SNAPSHOT.jar \ -Dpackaging=jar \ -DgeneratePom=true – Michael Ellis Jun 14 '20 at 08:51
