The SimpleHttpServer class that Mahendra is updating is used by multi-relase jars and  jaxp catalog tests. It could be prudent to update the class first, check that everything remains stable, and then replace usage in a followup issue.
It seems this class is only being used by three tests however - so maybe updating those three tests to use the SimpleFileServer directly won't be too bad. 
If we do that then make sure we keep the same behaviour = keep the executor as @jaikiran suggested.

Good find about `test/jdk/com/sun/net/httpserver/SimpleFileServer.java` - let's attempt to remove it - it does not appear to be used anywhere.
