Re: [equinox-dev] getResources : bundleresource

[Erik Bengtson <erik@xxxxxxxx>]

Thomas,

You got my use case, and answered very well :). my bundles are deployed as inner
libraries.

Two options I know to solve my issue:
1) use bundles as real bundles :)
2) use FileLocator.resolve() to resolve the URL and load MANIFEST.MF files from
there.

If you have more options, I would appreciate.

Thanks,

Erik Bengtson
