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: mjesseni@edu.uni-klu.ac.at
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.
Kind regards
Markus jessenitschnig

This works as you require in the latest 5.5.x code from svn.
I have had a quick look at the change log but can't see any obvious patch that
would have fixed this.
I am going to resolve this as fixed. If you particularly want this fixed in the
5.0.x branch feel free to re-open it but as far as I am aware there is unlikely
to be another 5.0.x release so it will get closed again as WONTFIX.
