using resource "./my-file" does not add the file to the classpath

It seems that the resource directive has no effect on the classpath.

// using resource "./foo.txt"
// using scala 3.1.0

import scala.io.Source

@main def run() =
  Source.fromInputStream(getClass.getResourceAsStream("/")).getLines().foreach(println)

$ ls
foo.txt  using-resource.scala

$ scala-cli using-resource.scala 
Compiling project (Scala 3.1.0, JVM)
Compiled project (Scala 3.1.0, JVM)
run.class
run.tasty
using$minusresource$package.class
using$minusresource$package.tasty
using$minusresource$package$.class

Note that foo.txt is not part of the resources.

Expectation: foo.txt is listed as a resource.

Hey, I’m not sure if I understand this correctly, but it looks like calling getClass.getResourceAsStream(path) takes the first classpath entry containing a resource matching path. If you pass “/” there, what matches anything, it will just take the first classpath entry no matter what it is.

I’m not sure if we can do anything to handle this. I’d recommend to use getClass.getClassLoader.getResources("") if you want to look for resources in all cp paths.

For handling resource files - it’s more complex but, maybe we can do it. Probably not right now
