public static URL findResource(String sName,
 ClassLoader loader)

Find the URL of the resource with the given name using the specified ClassLoader or the following Classes:

• The Thread Context ClassLoader
• The ClassLoader used to load Classes, which represents the Coherence Class Loader
• The System ClassLoader

If a resource with the given name is not found, this method attempts to find the resource using a fully-qualified or relative version of the specified name. As a last attempt, the name will be treated as a URL.

Parameters:

sName - the name of the resource

loader - the ClassLoader used to locate the resource; if null, or resource is not found, the list of ClassLoaders described above will be tried

Returns:

the URL of the resource or null if the resource could not be found and the resource name is not a valid URL specification

findRelativeOrAbsoluteResource

public static URL findRelativeOrAbsoluteResource(String sName,
 ClassLoader loader)

Find the URL of the resource with the given name using the specified ClassLoader. An attempt is made with both a relative URL and an absolute (fully-qualified) URL if required. This method will only search the provided ClassLoader; it is recommended to use findResource(String, ClassLoader) for a more exhaustive search.

Parameters:

sName - the name of the resource

loader - the ClassLoader used to locate the resource; this method returns null if a null ClassLoader is provided

Returns:

the URL of the resource or null if the resource could not be found or if a null ClassLoader is provided

This method attempts to locate a file with the specified name or path. If the file does not exist or cannot be read, this method attempts to locate a resource with the given name, using the specified class loader or context class loader.

If a resource with the given name is not found, this method attempts to find the resource using a fully-qualified or relative version of the specified name. As a last attempt, the name will be treated as a URL.

Parameters:

sName - the name of the file or resource
