Adding build-dev back ..

I noticed that module jdk.jpackager.runtime requires java.desktop on all platforms So far as I can tell this is for a Mac-only support for receiving and handling file open events. Probably it only makes sense or gets used when the API is used from a running desktop application. I might ask if we need this at all, but I definitely think it should not be required on all platforms if needed only for Mac even if we might want it on windows in a future version. Do we not envisage cases where you need the runtime API for some kind of daemon service for which there should be a singleton ? Do you really want to force the desktop module to be dragged along in such a case ? I think we should remove this dependency even if it means losing a MacOS feature at least for now.

1.) we could remove that functionality (I don't even really understand the use case for it), and remove the two arg registerSingleInstance method from the public interface, and remove the requires statement in module-info.java.

or ...

2.) we could move that functionality to a platform dependent class, having dummy methods of setOpenFileHandler in the windows and linux  platform dependent class.  Then we could add a module-info.java.extra in src/jdk.jpackager.runtime/macos/classes with that requires statement.

This is an update to the Request For Review of the implementation of the Java Packager Tool (jpackager) as described in JEP 343: Packaging Tool <https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8200758>

This refresh renames the packages used to jdk.jpackager and jdk.jpackager.runtime, removes the JNLPConverter demo, adds an initial set of automated tests, and contains fixes to the following issues: JDK-8213324 jpackager deletes existing app directory without warning JDK-8213166 jpackager --argument arg is broken JDK-8213163 --app-image arg does not work creating exe installers JDK-8212089 Prepare packager for localization JDK-8212537 Create method and class description comments for main functionality JDK-8213332 Create minimal automated tests for jpackager JDK-8213333 Fix issues found in jpackager with automated tests JDK-8213394 Stop using Log.info() except for expected output. JDK-8213345 Secondary Launchers broken on mac. JDK-8213156 rename packages for jpackager JDK-8213244 Fix all warnings in jpackager java code JDK-8212143 Remove native code that supports UserJvmOptionsService JDK-8213162 Association description in Inno Setup cannot contain double quotes The following additional issues are targeted to be address in the next few weeks: JDK-8212936     Makefile and other improvements for jpackager JDK-8212164     resolve jre.list and jre.module.list JDK-8213392     Enhance --help and --version JDK-8208652     File name is not passed to main() via file association on OS X JDK-8212538     Determine standard way to determine if a Modular jar JDK-8213558     Create more unit tests Note: The above issues are targeted to 'internal' - meaning we expect to resolve them in the sandbox before the initial push to JDK12. Issues targeted to '12' are expected to be fixed after the initial push. /Andy Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~herrick/8212780/webrev.2/ please send feedback to core-libs-dev at openjdk.java.net /Andy Herrick
