/**
 * Utility methods for resolving resource locations to files in the
 * file system. Mainly for internal use within the framework.
 *
 * <p>Consider using Spring's Resource abstraction in the core package
 * for handling all kinds of file resources in a uniform manner.
 * {@link org.springframework.core.io.ResourceLoader}'s <code>getResource</code>
 * method can resolve any location to a {@link org.springframework.core.io.Resource}
 * object, which in turn allows to obtain a <code>java.io.File</code> in the
 * file system through its <code>getFile()</code> method.
 *
 * <p>The main reason for these utility methods for resource location handling
 * is to support {@link Log4jConfigurer}, which must be able to resolve
 * resource locations <i>before the logging system has been initialized</i>.
 * Spring' Resource abstraction in the core package, on the other hand,
 * already expects the logging system to be available.
