@dbessono I am not sure that what I proposed in my previous comment is possible without a serious rework of a considerable part of the jtreg project.. since there is basically only one class that is responsible for communication between jtreg and jtharness and that is RegressionParameters that directly extends BasicInterviewParameters. If I don't at least modify BasicInterviewParameters (probably the interface Parameters would have to be touched a bit too) in jtharness, than the extension you are proposing would mean rewriting half of the code responsible for communication between jtreg & jtharness. Thoughts?
I am still convinced that the presented code in this PR is the most minimalistic and simple solution to the https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/CODETOOLS-7903519
