[adding core-libs-dev back in.. not sure how that got lost]

[Back from vacation, let's get the ball rolling again… :]

In order to understand and explain here is a truth table:

Cmd line FAC LAUNCHMODE JAVAFXLAUNCHMODE java -jar fxapp.jar Present LMJAR LMJAR java -jar fxapp.jar Not present LMJAR LMCLASS ?? java -cp fxapp.jar ... Not present LMCLASS LMCLASS java -cp somedir ... Not present LMCLASS LMCLASS If I am understanding this correctly, the confusion stems from the second case where the value is interpreted in different ways. Correct. I have actually changed it to fix this case, and IMHO it cleans up the launcher code a bit.. I'll post the webrev when I'm done syncing with TL.

The current patch I have: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ddehaven/8004547/webrev.2/

Minor change to accommodate this in FX LauncherImpl (needs a new JIRA issue?): http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ddehaven/javafx/RT-26751/webrev.2/

This was all working fine when I left for vacation, I'm still in the process of building/testing everything and will submit a JPRT run as soon as possible.

I had commented out two tests, but FX is in sync with JDK and they'll pass vacuously until FX is on the ext classpath anyways so I don't think that's necessary.
