How to Use External Dependencies

[nicklee1990]

How would you go about incorporating an external dependency into one of your modules? For example lets say you used a Math dependency in one of your implementations:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
    <artifactId>commons-math3</artifactId>
    <version>3.2</version>
</dependency>

With this added to your POM, would your run command still work? I've used your project as a template for a playground project and I'm getting a java.lang.module.FindException: Module XXXXX not found, required by ....

In my module-info.java for the service provider provider I require the non-modular dependency

I have the same issue, any workarounds?

While this is very late, but relevant, you can "require" non-modular jars by their jar name. That is considered as "depending on a module with automatic name"
