Read a file within a jar from java code present in same jar

Question

I am trying to read a xsd file kept in a jar using java code kept inside the same jar. I am using the following code.

URL tmpurl = ClassLoader.getSystemResou         


        

Answer 1

Hava you tried?

getClass().getClassLoader().getResource()

Also your classpath in manifest file in jar does matter.

Please, take a look at accepted answers in here:
