Description

This issue is a copy of HARMONY-877 for IBM VME since it is already fixed for DRL VM.

The Harmony methods ClassLoader.getResource(null) and ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream(null) returns null while RI throws NPE.

==================== test.java ====================
public class test {
public static void main (String[] args) {
try

{ System.out.println("res = " + ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().getResource(null)); }

catch (NullPointerException e)

{ System.out.println("exception: " + e); }

try

{ System.out.println("res = " + ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(null)); }

catch (NullPointerException e)

{ System.out.println("exception: " + e); }

}
}
