 Posted: Tue Nov 03, 2009 2:01 pm Post subject: getResourceAsStream problem? |
 |
|
Hi!
I'm building a code that will load up a Scanner for an input stream that can be specified whenever a new instance of the class is called. The code is below:
| Code: |
public class refreader {
int currentchar;
String inputfile;
InputStream stream = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream(inputfile);
Scanner refScanner = new Scanner(stream.toString());
public refreader(String inputfile)
{
this.inputfile = inputfile;
}
}
|
Notice it uses getResourceAsStream.
And later on, in my Main java file, I create a new instance of this called 'cr', and it calls to a file in the same direcotry as my other java files called "creatures.txt".
| Code: |
refreader cr = new refreader("creatures.txt");
|
But no matter what I try to do with cr, it always gives me an IOexception, basically saying that it could not find the file specified.
Here's the error log:
| Code: |
init:
deps-clean:
Deleting directory /home/andy/NetBeansProjects/TestApp/build
clean:
init:
deps-jar:
Created dir: /home/andy/NetBeansProjects/TestApp/build/classes
Created dir: /home/andy/NetBeansProjects/TestApp/build/empty
Compiling 4 source files to /home/andy/NetBeansProjects/TestApp/build/classes
/home/andy/NetBeansProjects/TestApp/src/testapp/Main.java:22: unreported exception java.io.IOException; must be caught or declared to be thrown
System.out.println(cr.stream.available());
1 error
/home/andy/NetBeansProjects/TestApp/nbproject/build-impl.xml:365: The following error occurred while executing this line:
/home/andy/NetBeansProjects/TestApp/nbproject/build-impl.xml:170: Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.
|
But I'm postivitely sure that creatures.txt is right inside of the project's source files! You can see it as an image here:
What am I doing wrong? I was told "getResourceAsStream" loads the resources/files from the folder in which the class calling them is located. Any help would be greatly appreciated! |

The error you posted is not a runtime Exception but a compiler error.
Are you sure your program can be built? |

I'm sorry, I misphrased that. It's a compiler error that says "unreported exception java.io.IOException; must be caught or declared to be thrown", therefore I said "exception". I'm really new to this but I should have at least caught onto that.
So no, my program can't be built. |
