How to read, write file inside the JAR file?

Hi all,

I want to read the file inside the jar file, use following method:

File file = new File("filename");

........

.......

It works if not in JAR file, but it doesn't work if it's in a JAR file.

I found someone had the same problem, but no reply.

Thanks in advance

Leo

You can create a ZipFile object and then read the files inside using the ZipInputStream.

You could also use something like this:JarFile jf = new JarFile("myJar.jar");InputStream is = jf.getInputStream(jf.getEntry("filename")); -Ron

If you want to read a file from the JAR file that the application is packaged in (rather than a separate external JAR file) you do it like this ...InputStream is = ClassLoader.getSystemResourceAsStream("filename");

Better to use

this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream();

From a class near to where the data is. This deals with multiple classloaders properly.
