[javaCompiler-users] Accessing Resources [getResourceAsStream]

[<kas...@gm...>]

Hello,

How can external resources, such as image files (gif or jpegs) be
referenced by the final .exe build in a Java class? I tried using
"getResourceAsStream" as the normal way of accessing resources using a
class but it could not find the resource.

Also, do these need to be embedded into the exe or referenced using
relative paths?

Any help is appreciated.
