Class DirectoryNameResourceProvider

java.lang.Object

org.jboss.solder.servlet.resource.DirectoryNameResourceProvider

All Implemented Interfaces:

WebResourceLocationProvider, Sortable

public class DirectoryNameResourceProvider
extends Object
implements WebResourceLocationProvider

This implementation of WebResourceLocationProvider will try to identify the location of web resources by searching for a known resource on the classpath and trying to find the WEB-INF directory in its path name. This will typically work if the known resource in located in a JAR file inside the WEB-INF/lib directory.

Compared to URLClassLoaderResourceProvider this implementation works fine even for containers like JBoss AS6 and AS7.
