🤖 jabgui/src/main/java/module-info.java:17 still declares requires java.desktop, although no javax.swing reference is left in jabgui — the Swing undo manager was the last one, and it is gone.
What still pulls the module in is AWT, in two unrelated places:
- The clipboard —
ClipBoardManager uses java.awt.Toolkit, java.awt.datatransfer.DataFlavor, StringSelection, Transferable, UnsupportedFlavorException.
- Desktop integration —
java.awt.Desktop in DefaultDesktop, NativeDesktop, Linux and SendAsEMailAction. Note that NativeDesktop already carries the comment "java.awt.Desktop cannot be used as we don't want to rely on AWT", so this half is partly a leftover.
JavaFX has javafx.scene.input.Clipboard, so the first half looks like a swap — but the AWT path exists to reach flavours JavaFX does not expose, and that has to be checked rather than assumed. The mail and browse calls need their own per-platform answer.
So this is two pieces of work with one payoff (dropping the module requirement), and neither is undo work. Filed because the undo migration set out to remove java.desktop and got only as far as removing the javax.swing half of it.
