Hi,

JDK-8216401[1][2] added code to improve JAR spec conformance (WRT relative URLs in the Class-Path attribute), while maintaining some key compatibility aspects (entries using "file:" URLs are not relative, but are used by some libraries).

This code was disabled by default, but we would now like to enable it.

Bug:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8211941
Webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bchristi/8211941/webrev-06/

This change includes a new system property ("jdk.net.URLClassPath.showIgnoredClassPathEntries") that can be set to aid in debugging JAR Class-Paths by printing entries that are ignored.

Thanks,
-Brent
