Hi,
Object.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(Object.class.getName().replace('.',

should work across all jdks.
This should work as before (ignoring the issue that
Object.class.getClassLoader() will return null :-))
However, as I read it, the original question involves a tool running
on JDK 7 trying to access the .class files in a JDK 9 image. There
isn't any supported way to do that, the tool needs to be on a minimum
of JDK 8 as the jrtfs provider is compiled to 8.

Has anyone tried to translate the jrt-fs.jar using the following tool?
https://github.com/orfjackal/retrolambda
java.nio.file API was introduced in JDK 7 so in theory this could be
possible. With a caveat that even if this appears to work, the resulting
converted jrt-fs.jar will only be suitable for accessing classes in the
image of JDK 9. Until JDK 10 ships, the image format might change and a
new version of jrt-fs.jar will be needed...
