Extending RichFaces components using CDK
Hi There,
I have been using CDK for creating a tailor made DataTable for some specific application, be it good approach or not.
I have create a separate project and create my component (that extends the DataTable component) there .
So, I have an extra jar file for my components, name it extra-comp.jar
Whenever mydatatable is rendered, A4J tries to load resources needed by the DataTable (e.g. data-table.js) .
But, as long as the component is in my extra-comp.jar and resources are in another jar file, it can not load them.
When I copy these resources into my extra-comp.jar no error occurs.
How can I solve this problem without copying the resources into my extar-comp.jar?!! Can it be solved by changing the classloader configruations?

I had also taken a look on ResourceBuilderImpl.java. Would you please let me know if it is better to load the resources using classloaders not the servlet context as it is done in ResourceBuilderImpl.java?!
I mean a change like this:
InputStream in = servletContext.getResourceAsStream(path); ---> InputStream in = classloader.getResourceAsStream(path)
