I have the current file structure
-Boggle
*src
-java files
*data
-dictionary.txt
*derived
-Boggle.jar
Typing
System.out.println(new File(".").getAbsolutePath()
gives
/Boggle/derived/
I am trying to load the dictionary.txt file with
getClass().getResourceAsStream("../data/dictionary.txt")
but this returns null
However when I try
new File("../data/dictionary.txt").canRead()
this returns true.
Help would be much appreciated!
data/dictionary
is not considered an embedded resource, but is simply an external resource, in this case, a simple File
If you want to to use getResource
, then data/dictionary
needs to be included within the context of the class path.
You can do this by including data/dictionary
within one of the applications Jar files or setting the class path to include the parent directory containing the data
directory
