public URL getResource (String name)

Finds the resource with the given name. A resource is some data (images, audio, text, etc) that can be accessed by class code in a way that is independent of the location of the code.

The name of a resource is a '/'-separated path name that identifies the resource.

This method will first search the parent class loader for the resource; if the parent is null the path of the class loader built-in to the virtual machine is searched. That failing, this method will invoke findResource(String) to find the resource.

Parameters:

name

The resource name

Returns:  A URL object for reading the resource, or null if the resource could not be found or the invoker doesn't have adequate privileges to get the resource.

Since:  1.1

@apiNote When overriding this method it is recommended that an implementation ensures that any delegation is consistent with the getResources(String) method.
