Description Svata Dedic 2002-12-06 07:51:10 UTC 
The current way (findURL(Lookup, ...)) is ugly to
implement and probably broken anyway.
Find a better way to:
- identify the PathResource for the API client, so
it can recognize the PathResource when extracted
from a ClassPath
- provide a way to determine that 2 resources are
equal
Comment 1 Tomas Zezula 2003-04-23 16:32:20 UTC 
The PathResource's method findURL will be removed and the
getDefinition method will return FsMember (new class which behaves
like PM, but does not require project).
The resource can b identified by its FsMember
The equals operation is up to resource implementation, there is no
easy way how to find if two resources of different type represent the
same physical resource.
So, resources are equivalent only if they are of the same type and
their equals method returns true.
Comment 2 Tomas Zezula 2003-06-26 17:49:35 UTC 
This should be solved by the getHandler() method on the PathResource.
Comment 3 Tomas Zezula 2003-07-02 14:39:47 UTC 
Fixed
