      extended by org.springframework.web.context.support.ServletContextResource
All Implemented Interfaces:
ContextResource, InputStreamSource, Resource

public class ServletContextResource
extends AbstractResource
implements ContextResource

Resource implementation for ServletContext resources, interpreting relative paths within the web application root directory.

Always supports stream access and URL access, but only allows java.io.File access when the web application archive is expanded.

Constructor Detail

ServletContextResource

public ServletContextResource(ServletContext servletContext,
                              String path)
Create a new ServletContextResource.

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 - the ServletContext to load from
path - the path of the resource
Method Detail

getServletContext

public final ServletContext getServletContext()
Return the ServletContext for this resource.


getPath

public final String getPath()
Return the path for this resource.


exists

public boolean exists()
This implementation checks ServletContext.getResource.

Specified by:
exists in interface Resource
Overrides:
exists in class AbstractResource
See Also:
ServletContext.getResource(String)

getInputStream

public InputStream getInputStream()
                           throws IOException
This implementation delegates to ServletContext.getResourceAsStream, but throws a FileNotFoundException if no resource found.

Specified by:
getInputStream in interface InputStreamSource
Throws:
IOException - if the stream could not be opened
See Also:
ServletContext.getResourceAsStream(String)

getURL

public URL getURL()
           throws IOException
This implementation delegates to ServletContext.getResource, but throws a FileNotFoundException if no resource found.

Specified by:
getURL in interface Resource
Overrides:
getURL in class AbstractResource
Throws:
IOException - if the resource cannot be resolved as URL, i.e. if the resource is not available as descriptor
See Also:
ServletContext.getResource(String)

getFile

public File getFile()
             throws IOException
This implementation delegates to ServletContext.getRealPath, but throws a FileNotFoundException if not found or not resolvable.

Specified by:
getFile in interface Resource
Overrides:
getFile in class AbstractResource
Throws:
IOException - if the resource cannot be resolved as absolute file path, i.e. if the resource is not available in a file system
See Also:
ServletContext.getRealPath(String)

createRelative

public Resource createRelative(String relativePath)
This implementation creates a ServletContextResource, applying the given path relative to the path of the underlying file of this resource descriptor.

Specified by:
createRelative in interface Resource
Overrides:
createRelative in class AbstractResource
Parameters:
relativePath - the relative path (relative to this resource)
Returns:
the resource handle for the relative resource
See Also:
StringUtils.applyRelativePath(String, String)

getFilename

public String getFilename()
This implementation returns the name of the file that this ServletContext resource refers to.

Specified by:
getFilename in interface Resource
Overrides:
getFilename in class AbstractResource
See Also:
StringUtils.getFilename(String)

getDescription

public String getDescription()
This implementation returns a description that includes the ServletContext resource location.

Specified by:
getDescription in interface Resource
See Also:
Object.toString()

getPathWithinContext

public String getPathWithinContext()
Description copied from interface: ContextResource
Return the path within the enclosing 'context'.

This is typically path relative to a context-specific root directory, e.g. a ServletContext root or a PortletContext root.

Specified by:
getPathWithinContext in interface ContextResource

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)
This implementation compares the underlying ServletContext resource locations.

Overrides:
equals in class AbstractResource
See Also:
Resource.getDescription()

hashCode

public int hashCode()
This implementation returns the hash code of the underlying ServletContext resource location.

Overrides:
hashCode in class AbstractResource
See Also:
Resource.getDescription()
