You said JRE. If you mean the JRE created by the JDK build, i.e. $BUILD_OUTPUTDIR/images/jre, jrt-fs.jar is not present and hence you won’t be able to access its contents from another runtime image, as Alan explains in his previous reply [1]. This is an open issue (JDK-8153079). Mandy [1] http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/jigsaw-dev/2016-May/007977.html
