Well... we know this is a problem in Forge 1, which is one of the big reasons we are working on Forge 2. But you might want to take a look at the Spring MVC scaffold, which had to overcome this same issue:

Note the special template resolver.

PS. Sorry for the late reply.

Ok, I've found the problem, is with the "SimpleResourceResolver" that tries to locate resources in a context where those are not available.

This works fine with the faces scaffold because it is part of the forge standard modules (I think.....).

Any comments or better explanation ??

Hi guys, I'm facing a strange problem. Inside a facet which is a scaffold provider I need to load a resource for MetaWidget. I can see printing this from the method that needs the resource 

                this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("scaffold/errai/metawidget-formbean.xml")

that the file is available:

file:/Users/lucamasini/.forge/plugins/org/jboss/forge/forge-scaffold-errai/1.0.6-SNAPSHOT-e0a249f3-6fe7-4ea1-8fd9-680f8e422af4/forge-scaffold-errai.jar!/scaffold/errai/metawidget-formbean.xml

but inside the SimpleResourceResolver neither:

ClassLoader loaderContext = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();

or:

InputStream stream = getClass().getResourceAsStream( resource );

can find the resource because the "forge-scaffold-errai.jar" is not one of the JAR used by the current classloader (which is a JBoss's ModuleClassloader).

The current implementation of scaffolding for faces works because is inside the forge itself, but I think we have some problems using it in an external plugin.

Do you think I need to declare it in some kind of manifest ??

Thank you
L.
