Method Detail

createFileResourceLoader

public static ResourceLoader createFileResourceLoader(String name,
                                                      File root)

Create a filesystem-backed resource loader with support for native libraries. Created classes have a code source with a file: URL.

Parameters:

name - the name of the resource root

root - the root file of the resource loader

Returns:

the resource loader

createJarResourceLoader

public static ResourceLoader createJarResourceLoader(String name,
                                                     JarFile jarFile)

Create a JAR-backed resource loader. JAR resource loaders do not have native library support. Created classes have a code source with a jar: URL; nested JARs are not supported.

Parameters:

name - the name of the resource root

jarFile - the backing JAR file

Returns:

the resource loader

createFilteredResourceLoader

public static ResourceLoader createFilteredResourceLoader(PathFilter pathFilter,
                                                          ResourceLoader originalLoader)

Create a filtered view of a resource loader, which allows classes to be included or excluded on a name basis. The given filter is matched against the actual class or resource name, not the directory name.

Parameters:

pathFilter - the path filter to apply

originalLoader - the original loader to apply to

Returns:

the filtered resource loader
