If I have a bundle that contains a class and some resources used by that class. If I load the class from the bundle how should I load the resources(that are in the bundle where I loaded the class from) in that class?
Let's say I want to load an image inside my object instantiated from the class loaded from the bundle. If I do
NSImage *image = [NSImage imageNamed:@"myImage"];
Will it load the image that's inside the bundle from where I loaded the class from? or will it look in the bundle of the application that loaded the bundle with the class and resources?

It's called contentsOfFile , and here it is in action: if let filepath = Bundle. main. path(forResource: "example", ofType: "txt") { do { let contents = try String(contentsOfFile: filepath) print(contents) } catch { // contents could not be loaded } } else { // example.
A resource bundle is a set of properties files with the same base name and a language-specific suffix. For example, if you create file_en. properties and file_de. properties, IntelliJ IDEA will recognize and combine them into a resource bundle.
Simply put, the ResourceBundle enables our application to load data from distinct files containing locale-specific data.
In Java, we can use getResourceAsStream or getResource to read a file or multiple files from a resources folder or root of the classpath. The getResourceAsStream method returns an InputStream . // the stream holding the file content InputStream is = getClass().
On OS X 10.7+ do this do this:
NSBundle *otherBundle = [NSBundle bundleWithIdentifier: @"com.company.otherapp"];
NSImage *imageFromOtherBundle = [otherBundle imageForResource: @"imageName"];
This method searches for named images in several places, returning the first image it finds matching the given name. The order of the search is as follows:
- Search for an object whose name was set explicitly using the setName: method and currently resides in the image cache.
- Search the application's main bundle for a file whose name matches the specified string. (For information on how the bundle is searched, see ““Accessing a Bundle's Contents”“ in Bundle Programming Guide.)
- Search the Application Kit framework for a shared image with the specified name. When looking for files in the application bundle, it is better (but not required) to include the filename extension in the name parameter. (Link)
