Constructor Detail

ServletContextResourceback to summary
public ServletContextResource(ServletContext servletContext, String path)

Create a new ServletContextResource for the given path.

The Servlet spec requires that resource paths start with a slash, even if many containers accept paths without leading slash too. Consequently, the given path will be prepended with a slash if it doesn't already start with one.

Parameters
servletContext:ServletContext

the ServletContext to load from

path:String

the path of the resource

Method Detail

createRelativeback to summary
public Resource createRelative(String relativePath)

Overrides org.springframework.core.io.AbstractResource.createRelative.

Implements org.springframework.core.io.Resource.createRelative.

This implementation creates a ServletContextResource, applying the given path relative to the path of the underlying file of this resource descriptor.

Parameters
relativePath:String

Doc from org.springframework.core.io.Resource.createRelative.

the relative path (relative to this resource)

Returns:Resource

Doc from org.springframework.core.io.Resource.createRelative.

the resource handle for the relative resource

Parameters
other:Object

Doc from java.lang.Object.equals.

the reference object with which to compare.

Returns:boolean

Doc from java.lang.Object.equals.

true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

A value of true strongly suggests (but does not guarantee) that a getFile() call will succeed.

This is conservatively false by default.
