Accessing Java Resource in a Java class

Question

How does one go about accessing a java resource object from a java class loaded into the database?
I created a.properties file and loaded it using loadjava.
Next I wrote a class in which I try to load the resource:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class C {
public static void load() throws Exception {
Properties p = new Properties();
p.load(Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("a.properties"));
I then published method load as procedure p.
When I execute p, I get the following error:
SQL> exec p
java.lang.NullPointerException
at C.load(C.java:5)
BEGIN p; END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception:
java.lang.NullPointerException
ORA-06512: at "QSI.P", line 0
ORA-06512: at line 1
Thanks

Never mind. I resolved this using a ResourceBundle, thanks to another posting on this forum. I must say, the oracle documentation for this feature is scant and erroneous.
