That will work but it might be better to look at 
java.lang.reflect.Module#getResourceAsStream as this will work for 
resources in both named and unnamed modules (for unnamed modules then it 
works like ClassLoader#getResourceAsStream). The summary on this is that 
the ClassLoader#getResourceXXX methods will locate resources on the 
class path as before, it's just that they don't locate resources in 
named modules.
