getResource does searching and gives you the FIRST resource match on
the classpath.
It produces the !syntax which is treated thereafter like any other
URL.
You want a method something like this off the top of my head:
/**
@param s either resource or URL to resource
code either as "myimage.jpg"
or as "jar:file:///C|/bar/baz.jar!/com/foo/myimage.jpg"
@eturn URL to resource
*/
getURLForResource( Class c, String s )
{
if ( s.startsWith( "jar:" )
|| s.startsWith( "file:" )
|| s.startsWith( "http:" ) )
return new URL( s );
else return c.getResource( s );
}
