[11u] RFR: 8218268: Javac treats Manifest Class-Path entries as Paths instead of URLs

[Langer, Christoph]

Hi Jaikiran,

I guess it's holiday season so you ran into a little delay.

Your request involves two bugfixes, one is JDK-8232170 and the other is JDK-8218268. They should be backported separately. From looking at their description, I guess they are viable candidates for a backport. They alter the behavior of javac a bit - but I'd assume only in the sense of fixing bugs ��.

Since both patches apply cleanly, I have added them to our build&test system. We should have results on whether there are regressions by tomorrow.

Can you please add a fix request comment&label to JDK-8232170 as well? In case everything goes fine I'll approve and sponsor for you.

Best regards
Christoph
