Re: [Dsol-java] File naming convention

[Peter H.M. J. <p.h...@tb...>]

Hi Francisco,

The naming convention is just the Java relative naming convention. You 
can use the following:

URLResource.getResource("file:/c/tmp/customer.jpg"); //absolute file
URLResource.getResource("http://www.a.b.com/images/customer.jpg"); 
//absolute url

Relative depends on classpath. Let's assume the model is in a jar called 
model.jar

URLResource.getResource("/customer.jpg"); relative image in classpath. 
Must be in root of classpath (in the model.jar)
URLResource.getResource("/images/customer.jpg"); relative image in 
images directory in classpath. Must be in model.jar!/images/ of 
classpath (in the model.jar)

Peter
ps let me know if it does not work
