A developer runs 'java --list-modules' and sees the output above. Which command can be used to create a custom runtime image containing only the 'java.base' module?

⚠ Common exam trap

Many exam-takers confuse `jlink` with `jimage` or `jar`, and mistaking `--modules` for the correct `--add-modules` option, which is a common syntax error that candidates make when they recall the general concept but not the exact command flags.

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

jlink --add-modules java.base --output myimage

The `jlink` tool is used to assemble and optimize a set of modules and their dependencies into a custom runtime image. The `--add-modules` option specifies which modules to include, and `--output` specifies the target directory. Option D correctly uses `jlink --add-modules java.base --output myimage` to create a runtime image containing only the `java.base` module.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • jar --create --file myimage --module java.base

    Why it's wrong here

    jar does not create runtime images.

  • jimage --add-modules java.base --output myimage

    Why it's wrong here

    jimage is for managing runtime images, not creating them.

  • jlink --modules java.base --output myimage

    Why it's wrong here

    --modules is not a valid flag.

  • jlink --add-modules java.base --output myimage

    Why this is correct

    Correct syntax for jlink.
