file within jar

I created a jar file for my application using eclipse

within my project i have some file my application uses as images

i have a issue with the path to write to access those files

currently although all those files are already in the jar i have to create a folder duplicate those files and copy the jar in that folder to be able to use my resources.

to be more specific assuming i have

Package1

Package1.class1

Package2

Package2.image

what will be the path to write in class1 to open the image file?

I print out the directory while the program is running and it is the directory in which the jar file is

so i use this path

./myproject.jar/package2/images

in class1 code but it can not find the file(no such file error)

My question is what is the path to write in class1 to open a file located in package 2

Thanks
