Hi @ll,

i have a development problem, that sounds pretty simple:

Following file structure:

application.war
|- css
|-style.css
|- index.xhtml (refers to css/style.css)
|-WEB-INF
     |-classes
          x.y.z.ResourceReaderBean.class

Now I try to read the style.css in ResourceReaderBean bean. That seems to be not that
easy in Jboss 7. 

This tries didn't work:
InputStream is = ResourceReaderBean.class.getResourceAsStream("/css/style.css");
InputStream is = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("/css/style.css").getPath();

I tried much more, and googeled at least for 4 hours. But now I gave up. I dont have any idea how
to read the Resource in the bean. 

It works perfect from outside the WAR. But i dont want to duplicate the style.css (DRY Principle). It
should be possible to read the file from WAR.

Do some of you have any idea? 

Thanks
reagrds
Alex
