Class ResourceUtils

java.lang.Object

spark.utils.ResourceUtils

public abstract class ResourceUtils
extends Object

Utility methods for resolving resource locations to files in the file system. Mainly for internal use within the framework.

Consider using Spring's Resource abstraction in the core package for handling all kinds of file resources in a uniform manner. org.springframework.core.io.ResourceLoader @code getResource() method can resolve any location to a org.springframework.core.io.Resource object, which in turn allows one to obtain a java.io.File in the file system through its getFile() method.

The main reason for these utility methods for resource location handling is to support Log4jConfigurer, which must be able to resolve resource locations before the logging system has been initialized. Spring's Resource abstraction in the core package, on the other hand, already expects the logging system to be available.

ResourceUtils

public ResourceUtils()

Method Detail

isUrl

public static boolean isUrl(String resourceLocation)

Return whether the given resource location is a URL: either a special "classpath" pseudo URL or a standard URL.

Parameters:

resourceLocation - the location String to check

Returns:

whether the location qualifies as a URL

See Also:

CLASSPATH_URL_PREFIX, URL

getURL

public static URL getURL(String resourceLocation)
                  throws FileNotFoundException

Resolve the given resource location to a java.net.URL.

Does not check whether the URL actually exists; simply returns the URL that the given location would correspond to.

Parameters:

resourceLocation - the resource location to resolve: either a "classpath:" pseudo URL, a "file:" URL, or a plain file path

Returns:

a corresponding URL object

Throws:

FileNotFoundException - if the resource cannot be resolved to a URL

getFile

public static File getFile(String resourceLocation)
                    throws FileNotFoundException

Resolve the given resource location to a java.io.File, i.e. to a file in the file system.

Does not check whether the file actually exists; simply returns the File that the given location would correspond to.

Parameters:

resourceLocation - the resource location to resolve: either a "classpath:" pseudo URL, a "file:" URL, or a plain file path

Returns:

a corresponding File object

Throws:

FileNotFoundException - if the resource cannot be resolved to a file in the file system

getFile

public static File getFile(URL resourceUrl)
                    throws FileNotFoundException

Resolve the given resource URL to a java.io.File, i.e. to a file in the file system.

Parameters:

resourceUrl - the resource URL to resolve

Returns:

a corresponding File object

Throws:

FileNotFoundException - if the URL cannot be resolved to a file in the file system
