Static assets overwrite

[gbourant]

Description

I have the following project structure and the project-b has a (maven) dependency to project-a.

If i run quarkus:dev on project-b, it displays the index.html and logo.svg of project-a.

It would be great if project-a's static asses get overwritten if they exist in project-b's META-INF/resources directory.

project-a/
├─ src/
│ ├─ main/
│ │ ├─ resources/
│ │ │ ├─ META-INF/
│ │ │ │ ├─ resources/
│ │ │ │ │ ├─ index.html
│ │ │ │ │ ├─ logo.svg

project-b/
├─ src/
│ ├─ main/
│ │ ├─ resources/
│ │ │ ├─ META-INF/
│ │ │ │ ├─ resources/
│ │ │ │ │ ├─ index.html
│ │ │ │ │ ├─ logo.svg

The resources are loading from the classloader. So, the order depends on the classloader order. I'm wondering if we can influence it in this case.

@ia3andy Did you already encounter this?

This might be related to @dmlloyd work on classlaoders.

Any proposal for run time class loading (#43749) should include child-first resource loading as a feature.
