Invalid Class-Path in compiler jar files

[Werner Dietl]

I've made a clean jdk9/dev/langtools compiler build.
I then try running the compiler using:

java -classpath ./lib/java.compiler.jar:./lib/jdk.compiler.jar
com.sun.tools.javac.Main -Xlint Min.java

where Min.java is a trivial class.
I get:

warning: [path] bad path element
"jdk9-dev/langtools/dist/./lib/@{jarclasspath}": no such file or
directory
1 warning

I think this is caused by the MANIFEST.MF files in these .jar files:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.9.3
Created-By: 1.8.0_45-b14 (Oracle Corporation)
Class-Path: @{jarclasspath}

I use this way of invoking the compiler from an ant build.xml file.

Does anyone else see the same behavior?

Thanks,
cu, WMD.
