Class FilesystemResourceLoader

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    ResourceLoader

    public final class FilesystemResourceLoader
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements ResourceLoader
    Simple ResourceLoader that opens resource files from the local file system, optionally resolving against a base directory.

    This loader wraps a delegate ResourceLoader that is used to resolve all files, the current base directory does not contain. newInstance(java.lang.String, java.lang.Class<T>) is always resolved against the delegate, as a ClassLoader is needed.

    You can chain several FilesystemResourceLoaders to allow lookup of files in more than one base directory.
