> I've run into a case where, given an incorrect context parameter, a StringIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown.  This occurs in WebSphere Liberty because the server normalizes the external context resource paths during app initialization.
> For example, this parameter:
> <context-param>
>    <param-name>javax.faces.WEBAPP_RESOURCES_DIRECTORY</param-name>
>    <param-value>/META-INF/resources</param-value>
> </context-param>
> throws:
> java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of  range: 35
> at java.lang.String.substring(String.java:1377)
> at org.apache.myfaces.shared.resource.ExternalContextResourceLoader.getResourceVersion(ExternalContextResourceLoader.java:81)
> That parameter value is not allowed to have a leading slash.  However, the current exception is not very helpful, and can be easily avoided.  
> I'll attach a patch which avoids the StringIndexOutOfBoundsException in getResourceVersion(); we already have this logic in getLibraryVersion().
