Hi,
What is the significance of the variable "RESOURCE_VIRTUAL_PATH" in the
AddResource file. I'm trying to understand how the components read the
resources from the jar files. Can some one help me?
I cannot speak for the myfaces code, since I have not investigated the
internal resource loading mechanisms yet,
but the resource loading is usually done one way or the other by using
the class loader to determine the root and then by using the java file
api to load the resources. It is pretty much the same mechanism you use
to access any resource even in non server programs.
Depending on what you want to do with it you render it on the screen or
use it internally.
I saw basically at the JSF blueprints from sun on how to render the
resources onto the screen by using phase listeners (which were sort of
used similar to servlet filters)
