Examples of using build tools (Maven, Gradle, maybe even Ant)

[blalasaadri]

Most Java projects nowerdays are not built using javac directly; rather, they use a build tool such as Maven or Gradle. Examples of how to build a Jigsaw project (with modules and possibly module patches) using those would be very useful.

I'm pretty sure it's not yet straight forward to use maven or gradle for jigsaw at the moment.

PR #74 partially implements this enhancement - @isaiah @blalasaadri can one of you confirm this?

[neomatrix369]

@isaiah @blalasaadri any idea about the question above?

[isaiah]

@neomatrix369 Yes, but I only did the ant part.

That's fine, so we keep it open till someone else steps in with Gradle build - we already have a maven version
