         * Since Java SE 9, invoking getResourceXXX on a class in a named
         * module will only locate the resource in that module, it will
         * not search the class path as it did in previous release. So when
         * you use Class.getClassLoader().getResource() it will attempt to
         * locate the resource in the module containing the ClassLoader,
         * possibly something like:
         *      jdk.internal.loader.ClassLoaders.AppClassLoader
         * which is probably not the module that your resource is in, so it
         * returns null.
         *
         * You have to make java 9+ search for the file in your module.
         * Do that by changing Class to any class defined in your module in
         * order to make java use the proper class loader.
