java.io.File class and absolute Path
Regular Member Posts: 148 Join Date: 5/1/19 Recent Posts
Hi
When I create an object of  java.io.File class, absolutePath of my file is wrong .
String path = "src/main/resources/myFile.jpg";
java.io.File file = new java.io.File( path );
System.out.println( file.getAbsolutePath() );


How can I solve this problem?

You cannot use a file reference because you're inside of a jar, it's not an actual file.

Instead, use getClass().getResourceAsStream() to get to the actual resource.
