I am working on a utility currently running on Java 7 which will need to be able process Java 9 classes and read the Java 9 bootstrap class bytecode (e.g. java.lang.Object).
Is there a stable, "official" way to read the Java 9 bytecode from Java 7 where there is no "jrt" provider? Also, is there a stable, "official" way in which the user can specify the location of the Java 9 modules? Obviously "java.home" will point to the Java 8. - Svet
