                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/METAGEN-12
             Project: Hibernate StaticMetamodel Generator
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Hardy Ferentschik
            Assignee: Hardy Ferentschik


The API throws a FilerException with the message "Illegal name /META-INF".
The call in question is:
{code}
processingEnv.getFiler().getResource((StandardLocation.CLASS_OUTPUT, "/META-INF", "orm.xml" )
{code}

Currently we work around this by using {{Class.getResourceAsStream()}}
