I am trying to access a directory inside my jar file. I want to go through every of the files inside the directory itself. I tried using the following:
File[] files = new File("ressources").listFiles();
for (File file : files) {
XMLParser parser = new XMLParser(file.getAbsolutePath());
// some work
}
If I test this, it works well. But once I put the contents into the jar, it doesn't because of several reasons. If I use this code, the URL always points outside the jar.
structure of my project :
src
controllers
models
class that containt traitement
views
ressources
See this:
How do I list the files inside a JAR file?
Basically, you just use a ZipInputStream to find a list of files (a .jar is the same as a .zip)
Once you know the names of the files, you can use getClass().getResource(String path) to get the URL to the file.
I presume this jar
is on your classpath.
You can list all the files in a directory using the ClassLoader
.
First you can get a list of the file names then you can get URL
s from the ClassLoader
for individual files:
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
final String base = "/path/to/folder/inside/jar";
final List<URL> urls = new LinkedList<>();
try (final Scanner s = new Scanner(MyClass.class.getResourceAsStream(base))) {
while (s.hasNext()) {
urls.add(MyClass.class.getResource(base + "/" + s.nextLine()));
}
}
System.out.println(urls);
}
You can do whatever you want with the URL
- either read and InputStream
into memory or copy the InputStream
into a File
on your hard disc.
Note that this definitely works with the URLClassLoader
which is the default, if you are using an applet or a custom ClassLoader
then this approach may not work.
NB:
You have a typo - its resources
not ressources
.
You should use reverse domain name notation for your project, this is the convention.
