Felix bundle classloader always delegates to parent loader in getResources()
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: FELIX-2569
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-2569
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Framework
    Affects Versions: framework-3.0.2
            Reporter: Sahoo
             Fix For: framework-3.2.0


Felix's bundle class loader does not override getResources(); instead it 
overrides findResources(). As a result of this, it always delegates to parent 
class loader. I see the following interesting comment in the code:

        // The findResources() method should only look at the module itself, but
        // instead it tries to delegate because in Java version prior to 1.5 the
        // getResources() method was final and could not be overridden. We 
should
        // override getResources() like getResource() to make it delegate, but 
we
        // can't. As a workaround, we make findResources() delegate instead.
        protected Enumeration findResources(String name)
        {
            return getResourcesByDelegation(name);
        } 

Can we have something like two different implementations targeting pre and post 
JRE 1.5 and let runtime select appropriate one? If there is a better way, then 
even better.
