Im not sure about the filenames

Question

C:\Program Files\Xinox Software\JCreator LE\MyProjects\photows
The picture file i want to add is called "Cay.gif" and is in the location
C:\Program Files\Xinox Software\JCreator LE\MyProjects\photows\finalphoto
some of the guys that wrote to me said i would call it from ......getResource("/finalphoto/Cay.gif");
but the file names wrong and this is the part ive been trying to figure out.
here all the info i have on where everything is located, the class where im making my gui is called makeGUI, this is located in C:\Program Files\Xinox Software\JCreator LE\MyProjects\photows\finalphoto
the class where the main is, is called finalphoto.
so if someone could just help me with calling it, the path thats the argument in the get Resource method it would be great.

Answer 1

Without knowing your classpath it is impossible to say.
Take away the part of that directory path that is in your classpath, and use the rest of it as the resource name. For example if "C:\Program Files\Xinox Software\JCreator LE\MyProjects" was in your classpath then "/photows/finalphoto/Cay.gif" would be your resource name.
My guess is that you haven't put any such directory in your classpath. You will need to do that.
