Interface ResourceLoader

public interface ResourceLoader

Used to locate resources for DeploymentDescriptorParser.

This allows DeploymentDescriptorParser to be used outside a servlet container, but it still needs to work with a layout similar to the web application. If this can be abstracted away better, that would be nice.
