+====== Accessing Bundle Resources ======
+To access a resource (file) in a bundle various solutions are possible. A discussion about how to access an included file can be found on [[http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3810303/how-to-reference-an-included-file-in-osgi-bundle-when-performing-java-io-file-or | How to reference an included file in OSGi bundle when performing java.io.File or FileInputStream]].
+===== BundleContext =====
+Accessing the resource via the BundleContext class is possible but not very convenient.
+  context.getClass.getResource("resource.file");
+===== URL =====
+Accessing the resource via the URL works in Eclipse but may not working in other OSGi environments.
+  URL url = new URL("platform:/plugin/my.plugin.id/folder/file.txt");
+  InputStream inputStream = url.openConnection().getInputStream();
+====== FileLocator ======
+  Bundle yourBundle = Platform.getBundle("bundleSymbolicName");
+  Path relativePathToBundle = new Path("/relativePath");
+  FileLocator.openStream(yourBundle, relativePathToBundle, false);
