For a query of "java resource loading", not "java icon loading" which
is one of the ones I used, and other similar ones.

It is not exactly fair to fault me for not using the exact query you
just used. Also, there's the factor that you know exactly what answer
you're looking for, so a) when you tried one related query and didn't
get it, you tried more queries and posted one that produced the
planned conclusion, and b) you recognized the significance of
"ClassLoader.getResource" when you saw it in excerpts by search hits,
whereas I went by the text in the excerpts in deciding what looked
like a promising result.

This supports my conclusion that one frequent cause of problems is
that search engines work mainly when you already know, in detail,
exactly what you're looking for. It's easy to find Porsches with it;
hard to find a car recommendation for a given requirement and budget.
Easy to find ClassLoader.getResource, hard to find "how to incorporate
application icons portably in Java". Etc.

eh...?

Goggle: image icon load java applet

First link

Doesn't sound like a query where I know about .getResource() does it?

This is more a question of spoonfeeding the search-engines when you
don't know exactly what you're looking for.
