Title Body

I have a Java project with a toolbar, and the toolbar has icons on it. These icons are stored in a folder called resources/, so for example the path might be "resources/icon1.png". This folder is located in my src directory, so when it is compiled the folder is copied into bin/ I'm using the following code to access the resources. protected AbstractButton makeToolbarButton(String imageName, String actionCommand, String toolTipText, String altText, boolean toggleButton) { String imgLocation = imageName; InputStream imageStream = getClass().getResourceAsStream(imgLocation); AbstractButton button; if (toggleButton) button = new JToggleButton(); else button = new JButton(); button.setActionCommand(actionCommand); button.setToolTipText(toolTipText); button.addActionListener(listenerClass); if (imageStream != null) { // image found try { byte abyte0[] = new byte[imageStream.available()]; imageStream.read(abyte0); (button).setIcon(new ImageIcon(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(abyte0))); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } finally { try { imageStream.close(); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } else { // no image found (button).setText(altText); System.err.println("Resource not found: " + imgLocation); } return button; } (imageName will be "resources/icon1.png" etc). This works fine when run in Eclipse. However, when I export a runnable JAR from Eclipse, the icons are not found. I opened the JAR file and the resources folder is there. I've tried everything, moving the folder, altering the JAR file etc, but I cannot get the icons to show up. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? (As a side question, is there any file monitor
