Hi,
My original intention was to provide minimal support for parsing a
property value
and handling OS specific behaviors (quoting).
java.nio.file.Paths is a bit of backwater (now that Path.of was added)
and its factories are dedicated to handling Paths.
I considered a new type representing

Hi Roger,
110 * Returns a list of path strings parsed from a string with empty

The Unix shell and the Java launcher's -classpath processing treat an empty path

Clarified.
So classpath can call this new method first and then expand * to all JAR files.
This is fine.
Thanks

Hi Max,
Right, that is a description of the shell environment on Windows and how
the java launcher behaves.
On Windows the launcher expands wildcards when evaluating classpath from
the environment
and the command line args. After they are expanded the java.class.path
property is set.

This is not about the wildcard parsed by the shell. The bug synopsis mentions
"classpath" and I am just curious if it covers this feature. I don't have my
own user case for it.

Hi,
What would the use case be for that?
A search path is usually just a sequence of file paths; wildcard
expansion is not includes.
Wildcards are significant only in shell contexts, though the expansion
is done by the shell on Unix and by the application on Windows; it
would add a fair bit
Is the wildcard character allowed in the input?
I'm thinking of the wildcard support in classpath.

And they can't be stored or re-used. Which would mean re-parsing the

Hi Jon, Alan,
No surprise and suggestions welcome! :)
Since we don't have return type overloads, the name has to encode the
