Han Hong Fang commented on GERONIMO-5536:
-----------------------------------------

MyFaces has already provided one SPI FacesConfigResourceProvider interface, Geronimo can use this SPI to provide some URL to MyFaces. 

Implementation is already in trunk, and the workaround was reverted. So I close this JIRA.

> application configuration resources located in lib/*.jar can not be accessed by myfaces in OSGi enviroment

> Myfaces uses classloader to get jar file resource. In OSGi environment, bundleclassloader is used, and the conn (refer the code below) will never be JarURLConnection. This causes faces configuration files under jar file can not be accessed by myfaces in Geronimo 3.0.
