Can't get ResourceBundle from jar.

Dear all,
I have problem in geting properties from file included in jar file. I try to do it by calling mthod ResourceBundle.getBundle("bundle"), where bundle.properies is the file in jar. When I run the programm by calling :
java -jar dist/properties.jar
I have the following rsult on the console:
Exception in thread "main" java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle
for base name bundle, locale pl_PL
at java.util.ResourceBundle.throwMissingResourceException(ResourceBundle.java:712)
at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundleImpl(ResourceBundle.java:683)
at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundle(ResourceBundle.java:546)
In case I run this program, using not jar'ed classes everything is ok.
P.S. the manifest file of the jar is:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Apache Ant 1.5.1
Main-Class: PropertiesLoader
Thanks in advance for all answers.

According to ResourceBundleAPI:
Calling this method is equivalent to calling
    getBundle(baseName, locale, this.getClass().getClassLoader()),
except that getClassLoader() is run with the security privileges of ResourceBundleTry this code, it will obtain the application's ClassLoader and will enable the location of the properties file in all the classpath defined for it.
        ClassLoader loader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
        resources = ResourceBundle.getBundle(BUNDLE_BASENAME, locale, loader);Good Luck!

Get Images from jar. getResource() not working

I've read some of the posts in the forum and I've tried the solutions but still cant get the images in my program.
I'll write all the things I've tried (All of them works fine when I run them from bluej):
1- The code used in the jar files in demo folder of jdk:
/** Inside the main class: */
private static ResourceBundle resources;
    static {
        try {
            resources = ResourceBundle.getBundle("resources.Recursos", Locale.getDefault());
        } catch (MissingResourceException mre) {
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(new JFrame(), "ResourceBundle not found","Error",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
            System.exit(1);
public String getResourceString(String nm)
        String str;
        try {
            str = resources.getString(nm);
              } catch (MissingResourceException mre) {
            str = null;
        return str;
    public URL getResource(String key)
        String name = getResourceString(key);
        if (name != null)
            URL url = getClass().getResource(name); // Here is the exception
            return url;
        return null;
    public ImageIcon loadImage(String image_name)
        URL image_url = null;
        try
            image_url = getResource(image_name);
            if (image_url != null)
                return new ImageIcon(image_url);
            else
            return null;
        }catch(Exception e)
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(new JFrame(), e.getMessage() + "In load Image","Error",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
            return null;
/** Inside the constructor */
abrirButton = new JButton(loadImage("open"));
}//End of the class}
The ResourceBundle is a file named: Recursos.properties and it's in a folder inside the folder of my *.class and *.java And have this information:
Title=Recursos
ElementTreeFrameTitle=Elements
ViewportBackingStore=false
open=resources/open24.gif
save=resources/saveAs24.gif
cut=resources/cut24.gif
copy=resources/copy24.gif
paste=resources/paste24.gif
analisis=resources/bean24.gif
This one, runs with the jar, but the images are not in the buttons and I get the Dialog message telling me that there was an error in loadImage. Check that method. I used this dialogs to track the error and the exception it's generated by:
URL url = getClass().getResource(name);
in public URL getResource(String key) method.
2- I also tried to follow the instructions of this article that describes how to get resources from jars:
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-07-1998/jw-07-jar-p2.html
This is the first page of the article:
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-07-1998/jw-07-jar.html
And I did something like this:
/** Inside constructor */
abrirButton = new JButton(new ImageIcon(getImageFromJAR("Imagenes/open24.gif")));
/** Inside of my main class */
public Image getImageFromJAR(String fileName)
           try{
           if( fileName == null ) return null;
           Image image = null;
           Toolkit toolkit = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
            image = toolkit.getImage( getClass().getResource(fileName) );
            return image;
            }catch(Exception exc){
                JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(new JFrame(), "Exception loading the image","Error",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
                return null;
...The images in this one are in the folder Imagenes inside the folder of my *.class and *.java
This one work fine in bluej too, but the jar... It doesn't even start.
3- And the last one.
abrirButton = new JButton(new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("Imagenes/open24.gif"));Works fine in bluej, not running in jar.
Am I doing something wrong? Please somebody help me.
thanks in advance

Are you putting the image files inside the jar? If you are, then use "jar tf jarfile.jar" to display the contents of the jar and make sure the files are there and inside the right directory. If you are not, then you can not use getClass().getResource() from a jar file because it will look inside the jar file.
If you are getting an error message, please post it.

Can't get matching xdb6.jar, xmlparserv2.jar and ojdbc6.jar

No matter what I try, they are always somewhat different and I'm getting exceptions with JDBC on either setSQLXML or on .getString() once I retrieved the SQLXML object and want to get the content back or I'm downright getting "oracle.xdb.XMLType cannot be cast to java.sql.SQLXML"
How is it possible that Oracle who owns Java and OracleDB can't make a working Java driver? I just want to be able to work with XML, I didn't know this was asking much. I have OracleXE installed.

Retrieved WHAT SQLXML object? Retrieved from where? What is the full name and version of the database you are using? For Oracle that would be the 4 digit version as returned by 'SELECT * FROM V$VERSION'. Oracle DB doesn't have any SQLXML objects; it has XMLTYPE columns. Is that what you are trying to access?

Have you used this functionality before? Do you know how to use it? If you have never used it and have no expertise with it we need to know that so we can tell you how to get up to speed so you can use it successfully.
Since you haven't provided ANY of the information needed to provide any specific suggestions all we can do is assume that you are using the last, current version of Java and all jars files and have never used the functionality. In that case you need to start at the beginning.

SQLXML Type
One of the most important updates in JDBC 4.0 standard is the support for the XML data type, defined by the SQL 2003 standard. Now JDBC offers a mapping interface to support the SQL/XML database data type, that is, java.sql.SQLXML. This new JDBC interface defines Java native bindings for XML, thus making handling of any database XML data easier and more efficient.
The oracle.jdbc.getObjectReturnsXMLType Property
In Oracle Database 10g and earlier versions of Oracle Database 11g, Oracle JDBC drivers supported the Oracle SQL XML type (XMLType) through an Oracle proprietary extension. XML values were represented by instances of the oracle.xdb.XMLType class and the SQL XMLType values were read and set through the JDBC standard getObject, setObject, and updateObject methods.
The JDBC standard requires the getObject method to return an instance of java.sql.SQLXML type when called on a SQL XML type column. But, the earlier versions of Oracle JDBC drivers return an instance of oracle.xdb.XMLType. This does not conform to the JDBC standard.
The current release of Oracle JDBC drivers conform to the JDBC standard with the introduction of a new connection property, oracle.jdbc.getObjectReturnsXMLType. If you set this property to false, then the getObject method returns an instance of java.sql.SQLXML type. You can achieve this by using the following command line option while compiling your program with javac:
-Doracle.jdbc.getObjectReturnsXMLType="false"
If you depend on the existing Oracle proprietary support for SQL XMLType using oracle.xdb.XMLType, then you can change the value of this property back to true by using the following command line option:
-Doracle.jdbc.getObjectReturnsXMLType="true"
The value of the oracle.jdbc.getObjectReturnsXMLType property is a String representing a boolean value of either true or false. If the value of this property is true, then the getObject method returns oracle.xdb.XMLType instances, when called for a SQL XMLType column. This is the deafault value of the oracle.jdbc.getObjectReturnsXMLType property. If the value of this property is false, then the getObject method returns java.sql.SQLXML instances. This is the standard JDBC-compliant mode.
Note:
The oracle.jdbc.getObjectReturnsXMLType property affects only the result of the getObject method. All other methods conform to the JDBC 4.0 standard regardless of the value of the property.
>
The exception that you are getting
>
oracle.xdb.XMLType cannot be cast to java.sql.SQLXML
>
is telling that the XMLType is NOT an SQLXML type so you can't use it as one. That doc section above should tell explain that those are two DIFFERENT types. You use one or the other depending on which version of the functionality you want to use. You can use the older 'non-JDBC' standard or the new 'JDBC' standard. But you can't mix the two.
Review that entire chapter of the doc and see if that helps.
If not then you need to provide ALL relevant information if you need more help:
1. Java version
2. DB name and version
3. JAR file names and versions
4. Java code that demonstrates the problem
5. EXACT copies of any and all exceptions and errors that occur
6. A description, in English, of what you are trying to do and how you are trying to do it.

Can we get data from business views in CR 2008/XI?

Hi All,
Can we get data from business views in CR 2008/XI?
If its possible, pls let us know how to get connect with Business View in both of these versions and what is the tool that we have to use to create Business Views.
Thank you,
Krishna Pingali

Hi Krishna,
Crystal Reports/BusinessObjects Enterprise ( BOE ) Business Views can only be created using the BV build which comes with BOE and installed using the Work Station installer for BOE. for both XI and 2008.
You cannot mix these two versions on the same PC not can one talk to the other, the BV designer must match the same version as BOE. XI ( version 11.0 ) is no longer available but if you mean XI R2 ( version 11.5 ) then it still is.
It's not completely clear which Business View you are referring to? BOE has a Business View Designer so not sure if this is just a naming problem or not? If you are referring to the BOE Business View Designer then the above is true. If your reference is about some other BV designer or data source then you need to clarify.
Contact our Sales department for pricing and availability.
Thank you

I lost my hard drive and want to get my music back on my new computer. How can I get songs from my ipod to my computer? I am afraid to sync it and losing what is on my ipod. Any help would be appreciated.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from your ipod: File>Transfer Purchases

How can I get music from old mac to new mac?

How can I get music from old mac to new mac please?
Can't seem to make Migration Assistant work. Doesn't ask about or transfer files.

I just migrated into a new MBP from an old one.
It did not bring the music over. Apple's instructions are to use the Home Sharing feature of iTunes.
Open iTunes on your old Mac. Select Home Sharing under the Advanced menu. Sign in. Do the same on your new computer. Then when the library appears under Home Sharing on the left-hand panel on your new computer's iTunes, you can select all and Add To Library.
That's what Apple says, anyway.

How can I get a single jar file with NetBeans?

How can I get a single jar file with NetBeans?
When I create the project I get these files:
dist/lib/libreria1.jar
dist/lib/libreria2.jar
dist/software.jar
The libraries that have been imported to create the project are in separate folders:
libreria1/libreria1.jar
libreria2/libreria2.jar
libreria1, libreria2, dist folders are all located inside the project folder.
I added the following code to the build.xml:
<target name="-post-jar">
<jar jarfile="dist/software.jar">
<zipfileset src="${dist.jar}" excludes="META-INF/*" />
<zipfileset src="dist/lib/libreria1.jar" excludes="META-INF/*" />
<zipfileset src="dist/lib/libreria2.jar" excludes="META-INF/*" />
<manifest>
<attribute name="Main-Class" value="pacco.classeprincipale"/>
</manifest>
</jar>
</target>
Of course there is also the project folder:
src/pacco/classeprincipale.form
src/pacco/classeprincipale.java
Can you tell me what is wrong? The error message I get is as follows:
C:...\build.xml:75: Problem creating jar: archive is not a ZIP archive BUILD FAILED (total time: 2 seconds)
