Depending on module

Requirements:

• retrieving some resource (a text file, an image, etc) from a JAR
• across module boundaries

Solution:

• opening packages with resources
• user of resource reads (usually requires) module containing the resource
• use Class::getResource et al.

TODO

Without dependencies

Requirements:

• retrieving some resource (a text file, an image, etc) from a JAR
• across module boundaries
• without depending on module containing resources

For ResourceBundle:

• Gunnar's blog post
• maybe minus the creative usage of Locale variants for different bundles
