Hi
In connection with the JEP there is also a design document to help the
discussion:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~psandoz/jdk9/MultiVersionJar-8u60-9-design.md
We are especially interesting in hearing feedback from library developers,
tool/IDE developers, and anyone doing funky stuff with class loading and JAR
files.

Hi Paul,
I read through the proposal and couldn't find an explanation of how
resources placed in versioned paths are going to be visible. For
example, if the multi-versioned jar contains the following structure:
my.properties
META-INF/versions/8/my.properties
META-INF/versions/9/my.properties
What will the following code return, when run on JDK9:
URL[] urls =
ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().getResources("my.properties");
Will we only get 1 URL: META-INF/versions/9/my.properties
or 3 URLs in order: META-INF/versions/9/my.properties,
META-INF/versions/8/my.properties, my.properties
Class name -> .class file resolving is easy, since only the 1st one is
used, but there can be multiple general resources for same path.
