Strange behavior of Class.getResource() and ClassLoader.getResource() in executable jar

by

I thought this question was already asked and answered! What is the difference between Class.getResource() and ClassLoader.getResource()? getClass().getResource() searches relative to the .class file while getClass().getClassLoader().getResource() searches relative to the classpath root. If there’s an SSCCE here, I don’t understand why it doesn’t 1) Show the directory organization in the .jar, and… 2) Take package … Read more

Java Swing: Displaying images from within a Jar
