RE: [gl4java-usergroup] loading pngs from jar files

[Byron W. <bsl...@mi...>]

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.
