[jira] [Comment Edited] (LANG-417) ClassUtils: method for turning FQN into resource path

----------------------------------------------------------------

I'm not sure whether {{toAbsoluteName}} is a good method name. I always associate "absolute" with the file system root. Maybe {{ClasspathUtils}} is a better name than ResourceUtils? Then it would make sense to determine the absolute name in the class path.

> I commonly need a FQ path to a resource within the same location as a class file. I recommend the addition of this method:
> {code:java}
> public String getPackageResourcePath(Class clazz, String resourceName)
>     StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
>     buf.append(ClassUtils.getPackageName(getClass()).replace('.', '/'));
>     buf.append("/");
>     buf.append(resourceName);
>     return  buf.toString();
> }
> {code}
