Hi Roger,
110 * Returns a list of path strings parsed from a string with empty
paths removed.
The Unix shell and the Java launcher's -classpath processing treat an empty path
entry as the current working directory. (I don't know what happens on Windows.)
Removing empty paths thus would seem to change the semantics of search paths, at
least on some systems.

Please review the API and implementation of an API to parse Path strings.
Two methods are added to java.nio.file.Paths to parse a string using the path
separator delimiter
and return either List<String> or List<Path>. Empty path elements are ignored.
For compatibility with current URLClassPath behavior the internal implementation
handles
replacement of empty paths.
