Images not appearing in jar file

Hi, i've created an executable jar file for my project in order to send it out for user evaluaution. The problem is, none of the images contained in my project resources package show up when the jar is run (e.g. the start up screen image, GIF/JPG/PNG icons for the fileview of the filechoosers etc..).
I'm basically doing something along the lines of.....
File imgFile = new File(path); //where path is something like "resources/startup.PNG"
imageIcon = new ImageIcon(imgFile.toURL());
to access the images.
I've checked the jar file and the images are definitely in there. Anyone know why they aren't showing up?
thanks

Because your code says that they're files in their own right. You need to either use a jar:// URL or use Class.getResource / Class.getResourceAsStream.

Image not appearing when opening file

This just started happening and I don't know if I inadvertently have changed a setting. I open a file in Photoshop and the file is obviously open because I can see it in the history or layers panel. However it does not appear on the screen. I've tried changing my viewing and other things, and it just isn't there. It's like it's behind something. But what?
My only solution is to shut Photoshop down completely, reopen Photogshop and reopen the file. Very inconvenient.
Any clue?

Suprisingly enough we had this same question about 4 days ago. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/982940?tstart=60

The first to do in cases like this if you've uploaded new files is to reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
*Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
You have images on your web page that have a backslash in the URL that Firefox escapes a %5C and that do not work.<br />

Images in webforms from jar file

In a headstart generated forms (designer 6 headstart 5.0.3) i have a lot of image items
(unbound items with the hint <IM>my_image.gif</IM>
It's a WebForms application.
I use jar archive file for images. But i see no any image in runtime.
The problem is: in qms$block.init_image_item (qmslib50.pll) is call to read_image_file whit 3 parameters
image_name => 'my_image.gif'
image_type => 'GIF' = substr(l_image_file,instr(l_image_file,'.')+1);
item_name => 'block.my_image_item'
It works on the web too but only if images are in the file system.
If images are in the jar file it don't works.
image_type for the web have to be 'URL' and
image_name my_image (without gif)
What i have to do?
How can i generate form with image_name (without extension) and image_type='URL'?
If it's impossible may be do you have a version of qms$block.init_image_item (for web :-) )
or do i have to change this procedure myself?
Kind regards,

The SOHT Java Client requires a properties file. Either start

Then from other information I have read I right click on the .jar file, select open with Always open with:

Then I do cmd:

does nothing, retry the other commands same thing (either nothing or those same replies)
Then I read (http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5384879) someone had the same problem as I and they solved it by uninstalling all Java/reboot/ then install JDK 6 Update 14 with NetBeans 6.5.1 start NetBeans and then it worked for them.
So I unistalled all Java, rebooted and gave the cmd another try (before re-installing), now a new error, of course:

Then I install Java SE and NetBeans Cobundle (JDK 6u14 and NB 6.5.1) Final Release/ reboot/ open Netbeans/

same thing.. nothing
Thank you very much for your time :D_
PS. My computer has been newly reformatted so needing another reformat I'm sure is not the solution.

Thank you very much for your replies Taggert_77 & swmtgoet_x :D
Taggert77_: I have never used NetBeans. I only installed it in the bundle as I had read on another post that somehow installing the bundle magically helped another user with the same problem (he didn't know why it worked after that either).
Before XP SP3 I was able to execute .jar file through cmd prompt. Now I am not.
This file is executable, grab it and you will see. Here is a screen shot (program in front is FlashFXP, behind is the cmd prompt and what should happen):http://www.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/53273b4ddf.jpg
swmtgoetx_: I only did the other cmd's to try to make it spit out something, anything lol :D
The proper cmd is simply: java -jar soht-client-0.6.2.jar
I did give your cmd a try, and it produced nothing :( (just like the other correct cmds)
java -client -jar soht-client-0.6.2.jar soht.properties
Thank you again...the mystery remains
PS. If you do a search for this you'll find an amazing amount of XP SP3 users with the same problem and no solution posted that I could find except one chap that did the unistall install order that I did above).

Problem deploying connector: META-INF/ejb-jar.xml not found in jar file

          Has anyone seen this problem:
          I built Sun's Blackbox implementation and packaged
          it identical to the BlackBoxNoTx.rar included with
          Weblogic's 'jconnector' sample (even using the same
          ra.xml and weblogic-ra.xml). When I try to deploy
          it, the server reports:
          java.io.FileNotFoundException:
          META-INF/ejb-jar.xml not found in jar file
          I have no idea why the server thinks my connector
          is an EJB. If I deploy the BlackBoxNoTx.rar included
          with the sample, everything works without a hitch.
          The only variable that I'm changing in my BlackBoxNoTx.rar
          is that I build the Blackbox classes myself--otherwise,
          the RAR packagings are identical. Any assistance is
          greatly appreciated since I'm banging my head against
          a wall...
          Thanks,
          -jason


          I was finally able to resolve this one. On the odd chance that someone else encounters
          the same problem, here's what went wrong:
          My RAR file had two directories: 'META-INF' and 'meta-inf'. The first was created
          by the jar tool and contained the manifest.mf file. The second I created manually
          and it contained my ra.xml and weblogic-ra.xml. When I examined the RAR using
          any tools or I extracted the contents, it looked like it only contained one directory:
          META-INF (because NT is case-insensitive).

JInternalFrame not opening in JAR file, but works when not in JAR

I have a folder that contains multiple .class files. I make all the class files into one jar file with this command:
jar cmf mainClass.txt myapplication.jar *.class
The mainClass.txt contains the following:
Main-Class: myapplication
class-path: myapplication.jar
The myapplication.class opens up a JDesktopPane inside a JFrame. It also contains a start menu, which again has elements that opens up misc JInternalFrames inside the JDesktopPane. The problem is this:
When I run the application from a .bat file, everything works fine. However, after making the JAR Executable file, everything works except 1 JInternalFrame. Now, the code for this JInternalFrame is far too much to post, so I'll have to ask as follows;
Are there any reason why a JInternalFrame would not work from inside a JAR Executable, but work when not in the JAR file? Especially when other JInternalFrames are working? What can make 1 JInternalFrame different from the others in this regard?

Perhaps the problem lies somewhere else.
Obviously if other JInternalFrames are working then there is a difference in the one missing internal frame that causes it not to show up.
My guess is that perhaps you are missing one or two classes in your JAR that are used by that JInternalFrame and that an exception is being thrown causing it not to show.
Double check the contents of your JAR and make sure that all the classes are present and that they are the right versions.

I can no longer burn a disc. The command to do so does not appear in my Files menu. All my recordings are 100% legal. I have installed a new version (it still looks the same), but that hasn't helped. I have done so before.

All my music is from legal sources (albums owned by me, others from iTunes), but the Burn Disc command does not appear in the File menu, and nothing I do helps. I downloaded a new version of iTunes, but it still loks the same and may just be the same. But the problem started long before I did that.

Weblogic Server not picking the jar files in WEB-INF/lib folder

we are facing a strange problem where Weblogic App Server is not picking the jar files present inside the WEB-INF/lib folder if we update the jar file path in the classpath of the start script then the classes get loaded properly.
Is there any specific setting which I need to do in weblogic to pick these jars ?

Class loaders associated with a Web application can be configured to locate local classes first. To enable this we have to set the <prefer-web-inf-classes> to true in the deployment override weblogic.xml, for example
<container-descriptor>
<prefer-web-inf-classes>true</prefer-web-inf-classes>
</container-descriptor>

any tip please ?
Thanks in advance

First of all, leave the lib and jre/lib directories of the JRE alone. Never ever touch them again. Remove any jars you have put there yourself, or better yet completely remove and reinstall the JRE to make sure you put it back in a correct state.
After you do that, learn how to properly work with the classpath in both the IDE and the command line.
Netbeans: you define the classpath by adding jars to the project (right click on the libraries node in the project tree to get the appropriate options).
Command line: this depends on if you run a single class, or you invoke an executable jar.
Single class: you use the -cp command line switch to define the classpath
Executable jar: the jar itself defines the classpath in its META-INF/manifest.mf file. The -cp command line switch is ignored.
Since you use Netbeans, you'll get an executable jar so make sure to learn how such a jar is structured.
