Abstract

A layered resource data structure includes several layers of resources, organized by access priority. A code module is linked to an access path through the layers of the resource data structure. The code module requests resources by accessing the resources in turn in each of the layers of the resource data structure until a resource matching the resource request is located. Resources are added to and removed from the data structure without requiring custom code modifications.
