Usage: jdeps ] can be a pathname to a .class file, a directory, a JAR file. Possible options include: -h -? --help Print this help message -dotoutput --dot-output Destination directory for DOT file output -s -summary Print dependency summary only. -v -verbose Print all class level dependences Equivalent to -verbose:class -filter:none. -verbose:package Print package-level dependences excluding dependences within the same package by default -verbose:class Print class-level dependences excluding dependences within the same package by default -apionly --api-only Restrict analysis to APIs i.e. dependences from the signature of public and protected members of public classes including field type, method parameter types, returned type, checked exception types etc. -jdkinternals --jdk-internals Finds class-level dependences on JDK internal APIs. By default, it analyzes all classes on --class-path and input files unless -include option is specified. This option cannot be used with -p, -e and -s options. WARNING: JDK internal APIs are inaccessible. -cp -classpath --class-path Specify where to find class files --module-path Specify module path --upgrade-module-path Specify upgrade module path --system Specify an alternate system module path --add-modules [,...] Adds modules to the root set for analysis --multi-release Specifies the version when processing multi-release jar files. should be integer >= 9 or base. -q -quiet Suppress warning messages -version --version Version information Module dependence analysis options: -m --module Specify the root module for analysis --generate-module-info Generate module-info.java under the specified directory. The specified JAR files will be analyzed. This option cannot be used with --dot-output or --class-path. Use --generate-open-module option for open modules. --generate-open-module Generate module-info.java for the specified JAR files under the specified directory as open modules. This option cannot be used with --dot-output or --class-path. --check [,... Analyze the dependence of the specified modules It prints the module descriptor, the resulting module dependences after analysis and the graph after transition reduction. It also identifies any unused qualified exports. --list-deps Lists the module dependences. It also prints any internal API packages if referenced. This option transitively analyzes libraries on class path and module path if referenced. Use --no-recursive option for non-transitive dependency analysis. --list-reduced-deps Same as --list-deps with not listing the implied reads edges from the module graph. If module M1 reads M2, and M2 requires transitive on M3, then M1 reading M3 is implied and is not shown in the graph. --print-module-deps Same as --list-reduced-deps with printing a comma-separated list of module dependences. This output can be used by jlink --add-modules in order to create a custom image containing those modules and their transitive dependences. --ignore-missing-deps Ignore missing dependences. Options to filter dependences: -p -package --package Finds dependences matching the given package name (may be given multiple times). -e -regex --regex Finds dependences matching the given pattern. --require Finds dependences matching the given module name (may be given multiple times). --package, --regex, --require are mutual exclusive. -f -filter Filter dependences matching the given pattern. If given multiple times, the last one will be used. -filter:package Filter dependences within the same package. This is the default. -filter:archive Filter dependences within the same archive. -filter:module Filter dependences within the same module. -filter:none No -filter:package and -filter:archive filtering. Filtering specified via the -filter option still applies. --missing-deps Finds missing dependences. This option cannot be used with -p, -e and -s options. Options to filter classes to be analyzed: -include Restrict analysis to classes matching pattern This option filters the list of classes to be analyzed. It can be used together with -p and -e which apply pattern to the dependences -R --recursive Recursively traverse all run-time dependences. The -R option implies -filter:none. If -p, -e, -f option is specified, only the matching dependences are analyzed. --no-recursive Do not recursively traverse dependences. -I --inverse Analyzes the dependences per other given options and then find all artifacts that directly and indirectly depend on the matching nodes. This is equivalent to the inverse of compile-time view analysis and print dependency summary. This option must use with --require, --package or --regex option. --compile-time Compile-time view of transitive dependences i.e. compile-time view of -R option. Analyzes the dependences per other given options If a dependence is found from a directory, a JAR file or a module, all classes in that containing archive are analyzed.
