http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39794 Summary: getResource method of WebappClassLoader does not return URLs for packages Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.0.30 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Catalina AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In my application scenario I need to be able to find all resources located within a given package. Therefore, I use the getResource method to find first the package along the classpath and afterwards I list all resources located within this package. I need this functionality to find all available Hibernate mapping documents so that I can dynamically configure Hibernate and dont need to know exact names of mapping documents. However, the WebappClassLoader does not return URLs for packages. For example Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResource("path/to/package"); returns null. The workaround for this issue is to place a resource with a fixed name in this package, so that this resource can be found. From the returned URL I extract the directory and than list the resources within that directory. However, the getResource method of the JVM classloader implementation also returns URLs for packages so that this workaround is not needed I 'normal' java applications. I am not sure whether or not this is a bug of the webapp classloader implementation. I use tomcat 5.0.30 and Java 1.5.0_07.
