[Peter A. <pe...@si...>]

Does anyone know how to load a png from a jar file?  An example would be 
great.

Thanks!

Peter.

put the png in a jar file then do something like 

URL url = YourClass.class.getResource("your.png"); 

Image img=Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(url); 


So if your class is called "Game"

URL url = Game.class.getResources("your.png"); 

rememeber that the string you pass to the getResources method is the
path in the jar file to the image so

getResources("/your.png") would point to the root of the jar file. 

There is another method that might be helpful:

InputStream in = Game.class.getResourceAsStream("your.png"); 

Then you can do whatever you want with the inputstream.

I'm sorry, what I meant to ask was how to load a png and use it as a 
texture in gl4java.  The gl4java png texture loader doesn't support 
inputstreams.  Just file names or URLs..

Apologies for the poorly worded request ;-)

Peter.
