[Dsol-java] File naming convention

[<fhe...@is...>]

Hi All,

When doing animation, I have saved my jpg file in the same directory as my
project.

When I run
URL image = URLResource.getResource("customer.jpg");
it doesn't work because the file name does not start with /.

If I type
URL image = URLResource.getResource("/customer.jpg");

it doesn't work because in the method
URLResource.getResource(String name)
a file object named \\customer.jpg is created, which does not exist.

If I change the code in URLResource.getResource(String name) so it first
check whether it starts with / to check in the Resources and the else
statement I move it up three lines, it works (see code at end of mail)

Is there a file naming convention (that uses DSOL) that I should know or
is a bugg in the code?

public static URL getResource(final String name){
   try{
	if (name.startsWith("/")){
           URL url = URLResource.class.getResource(name);
	   if (url != null){
		return url;
		}
           url =
Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResource(name.substring(1));
	   if (url != null){
              return url;
	      }
	}
	else{
    	   File file = new File(name);
	   if (file.exists()){
	      return new URL("file:" + name);
              }
        etc., etc.
