ClassLoader.getResource（）对jar中的图标文件不起作用。 图标必须存在于包含jar的文件夹中

Question

I'm working on a Java program that uses icon files. The icons are stored in a folder Icons in /src . The code to access an icon is

image1 = new ImageIcon(Control.PrimaryGameFrame.class.getClassLoader().getResource("Icons/openFile.gif"));

The program runs properly in Eclipse. But when I export its runnable jar to a folder abc , then it needs the Icons folder to be present in abc . If I place the jar alone at a place, it doesn't load the icons. What changes are to be made to the code, for the jar to find the icon files in itself and not in the folder it is in?

Answer 1

Try this:

ImageIcon image1 = new ImageIcon(getClass.getResource("Icons/openFile.gif");

This works fine for me.
