> Have you tried using `@build` instead of `@compile`? That way you don't need to specify the file location.

I did try `@build` but it didn't work because the class file will be placed in a path specified by the `-Dtest.class.path` property such as `./JTwork/classes/0/test/hotspot/jtreg/runtime/cds/appcds/test-classes`. During the test run, it tries to find the class from the `-Dtest.classes` such as `./JTwork/classes/0/runtime/cds/appcds/jcmd/JCmdTestFileSafety.d` and couldn't find it.
