JavaWebStart以及图像和文件之类的资源

Question

I have a doubt. I am using javawebstar in a swing project. In my app i have some images that I use to improve the design and a file .xls to show a report. I am using the method getClass().getResource("") to locate the images and I realized that my app try to find the resource in the web server using something like this: jar:http://www... . I thought that all resource would be sought in the local computer where the app was installed. Am I doing something wrong?

Answer 1

The app. will download the resources when needed and cache them on the local disks.

For security reasons the URL shown in the console will always point to the server , even for a trusted app. for which all the resources are cached.
