    - #### addNamedFile

          public static void addNamedFile(java.lang.String resourceName,
                                          java.io.File file)

      Publish or override resources named by `ClientBundle.Source` annotations. This method is intended to be called by Generators that create ClientBundle instances and need to pass source data to the ClientBundle system that is not accessible through the classpath.
      Parameters:
        `resourceName` - the path at which the contents of `file` should be made available
        `file` - the File whose contents are to be provided to the ClientBundle system

    - #### baseName

          public static java.lang.String baseName(java.net.URL resource)

      Returns the base filename of a resource. The behavior is similar to the unix command `basename`.
      Parameters:
        `resource` - the URL of the resource
      Returns:
        the final name segment of the resource

    - #### findResources

          public static java.net.URL[] findResources(TreeLogger logger,
                                                     ResourceContext context,
                                                     JMethod method)
                                              throws UnableToCompleteException

      Find all resources referenced by a method in a bundle. The method's `ClientBundle.Source` annotation will be examined and the specified locations will be expanded into URLs by which they may be accessed on the local system.

      This method is sensitive to the `locale` deferred-binding property and will attempt to use a best-match lookup by removing locale components.

      The compiler's ResourceOracle will be used to resolve resource locations. If the desired resource cannot be found in the ResourceOracle, this method will fall back to using the current thread's context ClassLoader. If it is necessary to alter the way in which resources are located, use the overload that accepts a ClassLoader.

      If the method's return type declares the `DefaultExtensions` annotation, the value of this annotation will be used to find matching resource names if the method lacks a `ClientBundle.Source` annotation.

      Parameters:
        `logger` - a TreeLogger that will be used to report errors or warnings
        `context` - the ResourceContext in which the ResourceGenerator is operating
        `method` - the method to examine for `ClientBundle.Source` annotations
      Returns:
        URLs for each `ClientBundle.Source` annotation value defined on the method.
      Throws:
        `UnableToCompleteException` - if ore or more of the sources could not be found. The error will be reported via the `logger` provided to this method

    - #### findResources

          public static java.net.URL[] findResources(TreeLogger logger,
                                                     ResourceContext context,
                                                     JMethod method,
                                                     java.lang.String[] defaultSuffixes)
                                              throws UnableToCompleteException

      Find all resources referenced by a method in a bundle. The method's `ClientBundle.Source` annotation will be examined and the specified locations will be expanded into URLs by which they may be accessed on the local system.

      This method is sensitive to the `locale` deferred-binding property and will attempt to use a best-match lookup by removing locale components.

      The compiler's ResourceOracle will be used to resolve resource locations. If the desired resource cannot be found in the ResourceOracle, this method will fall back to using the current thread's context ClassLoader. If it is necessary to alter the way in which resources are located, use the overload that accepts a ClassLoader.

      Parameters:
        `logger` - a TreeLogger that will be used to report errors or warnings
        `context` - the ResourceContext in which the ResourceGenerator is operating
        `method` - the method to examine for `ClientBundle.Source` annotations
        `defaultSuffixes` - if the supplied method does not have any `ClientBundle.Source` annotations, act as though a Source annotation was specified, using the name of the method and each of supplied extensions in the order in which they are specified
      Returns:
        URLs for each `ClientBundle.Source` annotation value defined on the method.
      Throws:
        `UnableToCompleteException` - if ore or more of the sources could not be found. The error will be reported via the `logger` provided to this method

    - #### getLastModified

          public static long getLastModified(java.net.URL[] resources,
                                             TreeLogger logger)

      Returns the most recent value of the `last-modified` header fields of all the Urls in the `resources` array. The result is the number of milliseconds since January 1, 1970 GMT. Returns 0 if the `last-modified` header field of one of the resources cannot be determined.
      Returns:
        the most recent modification date of the resources present in `resources` or 0 if not known.

    - #### getMethodByPath

          public static JMethod getMethodByPath(JClassType rootType,
                                                java.util.List<java.lang.String> pathElements,
                                                JType expectedReturnType)
                                         throws NotFoundException

      Finds a method by following a dotted path interpreted as a series of no-arg method invocations from an instance of a given root type.
      Parameters:
        `rootType` - the type from which the search begins
        `pathElements` - a sequence of no-arg method names
        `expectedReturnType` - the expected return type of the method to locate, or `null` if no constraint on the return type is necessary
      Returns:
        the requested JMethod
      Throws:
        `NotFoundException` - if the requested method could not be found

    - #### tryFindResource

          public static java.net.URL tryFindResource(TreeLogger logger,
                                                     GeneratorContext genContext,

      Parameters:
        `logger` -
