Use a dependency's resources?

Question

In my Maven project there is one module (core) that has a few resources for its classes. When running classes inside the module its able to get its own resources. Everything

Answer 1

I do not think it is a good idea. Suppose you have module A. It depends from 'B'. 'B' depends from C. Basically, you should care in A only about interface of B module. Perhaps, tomorrow it change dependence from C to D. If it would happen you will need change A. It is not good situation, is it? So declare dependence A from C in implicit way.

In short: How can I access the resources of a dependency?

In short: declare this dependence directly.
