Re: Loading templates from classpath ( ClassTemplateLoader problem or /dev/hands ? )

Here is what I did to get around this problem with ClassTemplateLoader

The issue is that the proper class loader isn't being used. I got around
this by subclassing ClassTemplateLoader

public class FixedClassTemplateLoader extends ClassTemplateLoader {

	private ClassLoader classLoader;
	public FixedClassTemplateLoader(Class clazz, String string) {
		super(clazz, string);
		classLoader = clazz.getClassLoader();
	}
	@Override
	protected URL getURL(String name) {
                // this now loads the template file from the jar 
		return classLoader.getResource(name);
	}	
}

then here is how I used it

ClassTemplateLoader ctl = new FixedClassTemplateLoader(getClass(),
"templates");
TemplateLoader[] loaders = new TemplateLoader[] { ctl };
MultiTemplateLoader mtl = new MultiTemplateLoader(loaders);
cfg.setTemplateLoader(mtl);
Template template = cfg.getTemplate("templates/testEmailTemplate.ftl");

----

Now I am able to load the template and generate my email template. 

Thanks
