-----------------------------------------------------------
I'd like to suggest the following:
{code}
public class ClassUtils {
// <snip>
public static String toAbsoluteResourceName(Package context, name);
public static String toAbsoluteResourceName(Class context, name);
// <snip>
}
{code}
or
{code}
public class ResourceUtils {
public static String toAbsoluteName(Package context, name);
public static String toAbsoluteName(Class context, name);
}
{code}
According to the original description above, he just wanted to replace a
resource name by an absolute resource name. e.g, [ com.example.Hello.class,
'HelloMessage.properties' ] -> 'com/example/HelloMessage.properties'.
In this sense, URL doesn't seem to be proper. URL is likely to have something
like 'file:///...', which is different from the original request. I assume he
wanted to use something like ClassLoader#getResource() in the end.
Also, the suggested api, toResourcePath(String fqName), doesn't seem to be
necessary in this sense.
By the way, I think we'd better use 'AbsoluteResourceName' instead of
'ResourcePath' because the former one is similar to the javadoc explanation in
java.lang.Class#getResource(name) (quote: "Before delegation, an *absolute
resource name* is constructed from the given resource name using this
algorithm"), and 'path' may sound confusing because the return value doesn't
represent a full (file) path at all.
Just my two cents,

> ClassUtils: method for turning FQN into resource path

> Key: LANG-417

> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: lang.*
> Reporter: Paul Benedict
> Fix For: Patch Needed
>
>
> I commonly need a FQ path to a resource within the same location as a class
> file. I recommend the addition of this method:
> 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();
> }
