      Description

        We currently have this flag just for running unit tests, etc:

          diagnostic(ccstr, SharedArchiveFile, NULL, \
                  "Override the default location of the CDS archive file") \

        However, as part of the CDS enhancement work (see JDK-8046070), this should be changed into a product flag so that it can be used for normal usage scenarios, without having to specify -XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions.


        The SharedArchiveFile will remain as diagnostic option, however we will add new API for unlocking a specific diagnostic flag:

          unlock_diagnostic()
