Loading files from a JAR at runtime [message #629160]

I would like to load resources from inside of a bundle at run-time.

The thing is, I do not know at runtime the names of these resources
(otherwise I would just use getResource() from the class loading mechanism.

I have also tried class.getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource() and then
opening up the JAR file from there, but it seems (when debugging) the path
from getLocation() is just a folder on my local file system. The same is
with BundleContext.getBundle().getLocation(); I get a path with "reference"
appended to it, but it is not a JAR.

Any tips on how I would do this?

Thanks

Greg

Use Bundle.getEntries(*) or Bundle.findEntries(*)
