I agree with Alan, this seems like the lowest-order primitive. I refreshed my memory of search path splitting from the `jmod` tool, where such an API would be useful ( if we weren’t using joptsimple ). There are two separate use cases, ClassPathConverter, and DirPathConverter ( in JmodTask ), both of which resolve each String path value against the current working directory, and do some context specific validation. -Chris.
