Loading resources

Yesterday we talked about what is the most elegant way to load a resource existing "alongside" a class. With "alongside", we mean:

$ ls -a de/thekid/demo/
.  ..  BusinessLogic.class.php  bl-config.ini

To load this resource, Alex was using the folllowing:

  $r= ClassLoader::getDefault()->getResource(
    strtr($this->getClass()->getPackage()->getName(), '.', '/').'/bl-config.ini'
  );

As of today, the lang.reflect.Package class was extended to provide this out of the box. The following is now possible:

  $r= $this->getClass()->getPackage()->getResource('bl-config.ini');
