length - The expected length of the array, or -1 if any length is expected.

Throws:

IOException

deserializeArrayResource

public static Object deserializeArrayResource(String name,
                                              Class elemType,
                                              int length)

Throws:

IOException

setHook

public static void setHook(JavaLayerHook hook0)

Sets the system-wide JavaLayer hook.

getResourceAsStream

public static InputStream getResourceAsStream(String name)

Retrieves an InputStream for a named resource.

Parameters:

name - The name of the resource. This must be a simple name, and not a qualified package name.

Returns:

The InputStream for the named resource, or null if the resource has not been found. If a hook has been provided, its getResourceAsStream() method is called to retrieve the resource.
