public final class ResourceResolver
extends Object
implements ExpressionResolver

Property resolver implementation that tries to load the given resource from the current classpath using the Thread Context classloader, and as fallback from the classloader that loaded this module and system classloader.

Method Detail

getResolverPrefix

public String getResolverPrefix()

Description copied from interface: ExpressionResolver

Get the unique resolver prefix. This allows to address a resolver explicitly, in case of conflicts. By default all registered resolvers are called in order as defined by the Priority annotation.

Specified by:

getResolverPrefix in interface ExpressionResolver

Returns:

the prefix that identifies this resolver instance, e.g. 'config:'. The ':' hereby is not required as a separator, but it is recommended to use it, because it fits well, with the other existing resolvers and is easy to read.

evaluate

public String evaluate(String expression)

Description copied from interface: ExpressionResolver

Evaluates the given expression.

Specified by:

evaluate in interface ExpressionResolver

Parameters:

expression - the expression to be evaluated, not null. If a resolver was addressed explicitly, the prefix is removed prior to calling this method.

Returns:

the evaluated expression, or null, if the evaluator is not able to resolve the expression.
