Fwd: RFR 8073423: Remove LazyClassPathEntry support if no longer needed

[harold seigel]

Hi,

Please review this updated webrev for bug JDK-8073423: 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~hseigel/bug_8073423.2/

The updated webrev differs from the previous one in two ways:

 1. The LazyBootClassLoader option is deprecated instead of just deleted.

 2. To preserve compatibility, bad jar files detected while setting up
    the boot class loader path are ignored.  With the previous fix, they
    caused the JVM to terminate.  (This caused test JTReg test
    hotspot/test/runtime/LoadClass/LoadClassNegative.java to fail.)

This updated webrev was tested with hotspot JTreg tests, JCK lang and VM 
tests, and UTE Quick tests.  Additionally, the deprecation of the 
LazyBootClassLoader option was tested by hand.

Thanks, Harold

Hi,

Please review this change to remove LazyClassPathEntry support from the
JVM.  With the demise of rt.jar, this is no longer used.

Open webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~hseigel/bug_8073423/

JBS Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8073423

The change was tested with JCK lang, vm, and api tests, hotspot jtreg
tests, and testbase split_verifier and quick tests. Additionally, I
tested '$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -XX:+LazyBootClassLoader -version" to test
for the deprecation message for -XX:+LazyBootClassLoader.

  Thanks, Harold
