Description
There is an issue in 0.9.14 (at least with some classloaders) in ClasspathResolver line 43, where getResource returns a non null URL for non-existent paths in the JAR which results in assuming it is a directory, when it is actually a valid classpath template resource.
43 } else if (ccl.getResource(normalizeResourceName + "/") != null) {
44 // This is a directory
45 return null;
46 }'
Proposed fix:
- } else if (ccl.getResource(normalizeResourceName + "/") != null) {
- // This is a directory
- return null;
+ }
+ // Use JarURLConnection to accurately check if this is a directory in the jar
+ try {
+ JarURLConnection jarConn = (JarURLConnection) resource.openConnection();
+ JarEntry entry = jarConn.getJarEntry();
+ if (entry != null && entry.isDirectory()) {
+ return null;
+ }
+ } catch (IOException e) {
+ // If we can't check, assume it's a file and proceed

Research direction
Start in ClasspathResolver around line 43 and inspect how getResource handles classpath template resources and directory exclusions. Verify the behavior with the relevant classloader, ensuring valid non-directory resources are not excluded while actual JAR directories still are; the issue does not name a test file to run.
