If FindBugs needs to read the bytecode of the java.sql.Array class from JDK 9,
how we can address it *without* knowledge to which module it belongs? We would
never know the module names, but only class names from bytecode, or I'm wrong
here?
At the end, the *only* reliable way to get the bytecode of the class file for
a given class name from JDK 9 classes would be to use the
Classloader.getSystemResource("full/qualified/class/Name.class") and this will
mean: to analyze JDK 9 we *must* run on JDK 9?
I'm missing something trivial?
There is some TBD here, most likely the file system will need to provide
file paths to get to the class files without knowing the module name.
The workaround for tools don't know anything about modules yet is to
just construct a class path of /$MODULE/* . The additional searching
might mean a bit of a performance hit but should be equivalent to
today's searching of ${java.home}/**/*.jar.
