Description

I currently register and use a custom URLStreamHandlerFactory to customise the resource that is being loaded for the keystore and the truststore due to how ResourceUtils.getURL is being used to load the keystore and truststore.

However this approach doesn't work in a native image because registering a custom URLStreamHandlerFactory is still not supported in a native image.

Research direction

Start by tracing how ResourceUtils.getURL currently loads the keystore and truststore, then compare that path with the available ResourceLoader mechanism. Done means both stores can be loaded through ResourceLoader in a native image without registering a custom URLStreamHandlerFactory.
