Method Source Code

//package com.java2s;

import javax.swing.*;

public class Main {
    /**/* w w  w.j  a  v  a 2  s  .  co  m*/
     * Returns the class loader for loading the resource files. It is a fix by
     * Dag Joar and Christian Schlichtherle for application running with
     * -Xbootclasspath VM flag. In this case, the using
     * MyClass.class.getClassLoader() would return null, but the context class
     * loader will function properly that classes will be properly loaded
     * regardless of whether the lib is added to the system class path, the
     * extension class path and regardless of the class loader architecture set
     * up by some frameworks.
     * 
     * @return The class loader for loading the resource files.
