public class: Resource [javadoc | source]

java.lang.Object
   org.apache.commons.discovery.Resource

Direct Known Subclasses:
ResourceClass

'Resource' located by discovery. Naming of methods becomes a real pain ('getClass()') so I've patterned this after ClassLoader... I think it works well as it will give users a point-of-reference.
