this is additionally compounded by
public final Object readObject(Class<?> baseType, String
resourceName, boolean localize)
throws IOException, SerializationException {
if (baseType == null) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("baseType is null.");
}
if (resourceName == null) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("resourceName is null.");
}
return readObject(baseType.getResource(resourceName),
localize ? new Resources(baseType.getName()) : null);
}
which uses baseType.getResource(resourceName) instead of
Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResource()
so the complete workaround is this kludge:
Thread thread = Thread.currentThread();
ClassLoader tccl = thread.getContextClassLoader();
try {
thread.setContextClassLoader(getClass().getClassLoader());
BXMLSerializer bxml = new BXMLSerializer();
URL url =
getClass().getResource("LoginComponent.bxml");
window = (Window) bxml.readObject(url);
window.open(display);
} finally {
thread.setContextClassLoader(tccl);
}
