Loading images from a JAR

Hi,
My class is currently stored in a subdirectory of my JAR file, and in the directory with the class is a "textures" directory, containing all of my images.
When I run my class from the directory before I zip it up to be a JAR, it works fine. But, as soon as I run it as a JAR file, it crashes when loading the images.
Here's the code I'm using to load the images:
BufferedImage temp = null;
String path = this.getClass().getResource("textures/" + imagePath).toString();
temp = ImageIO.read(new File(new URI(path)));What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any assistance! =)

Hiii bro ,
I think this will help u ,,,,,,,,
suppose you have a folder Image , under that folder there are some image files and you have a main class say TestMain.class .
In your main class(TestMain)
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
Now write this code into your main class----------->
public ImageIcon customOpenIcon = new ImageIcon(TestMain.class.getResource("/image/expanded.gif"));Thanks,
sb

Issues with Loading Images from a Jar File

This code snippet basically loops through a jar of gifs and loads them into a hashmap to be used later. The images all load into the HashMap just fine, I tested and made sure their widths and heights were changing as well as the buffer size from gif to gif. The problem comes in when some of the images are loaded to be painted they are incomplete it looks as though part of the image came through but not all of it, while other images look just fine. The old way in which we loaded the graphics didn't involve getting them from a jar file. My question is, is this a common problem with loading images from a jar from an applet? For a while I had tried to approach the problem by getting the URL of the image in a jar and passing that into the toolkit and creating the image that way, I was unsuccessful in getting that to work.
//app is the Japplet
MediaTracker tracker = new MediaTracker(app);
//jf represents the jar file obj, enum for looping through jar entries
Enumeration e = jf.entries();
Toolkit toolkit = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
//buffer for reading image stream
byte buffer [];
while(e.hasMoreElements())
fileName = e.nextElement().toString();
InputStream inputstream = jf.getInputStream(jf.getEntry(fileName));
buffer = new byte[inputstream.available()];
inputstream.read(buffer);
currentIm = toolkit.createImage(buffer);
tracker.addImage(currentIm, 0);
tracker.waitForAll();
images.put(fileName.substring(0, fileName.indexOf(".")), currentIm);
} //while
}//try
catch(Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
}

compressed files are not the problem. It is just the problem of the read not returning all the bytes. Here is a working implementation:
InputStream is = jar.getInputStream(entry);
ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream(1024);
try{
byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
int read;
while((read = is.read(buf)) > 0) {
os.write(buf, 0, read);
catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(os.toByteArray());
This works but I think you end up opening the jar a second time and downloading it from the server again. Another way of getting the images is using the class loader:
InputStream is = MyApplet.class.getResourceAsStream(strImageName);
In this case, the image file needs to be at the same level than MyApplet.class but you don't get the benefit of enumerating of the images available in the jar.

Loading images from a jar file

Hi,
My application displays images, until it's placed in a JAR file, then it can't display them even though the JAR file contains the images.
I saw this problem in a previous question which was solved using
URL url = MyClass.class.getResource("abc.gif");
Image img=Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(url);
....which btw didn't work for me either......
This method should be made obsolete using ImageIcon, which I am using, but the images still won't appear...
Any suggestions?

It works fine that way (...getClass().getResource....) until I create the jar file, and then I get a null pointer exception when it tries to load the image.
When I use
javax.swing.ImageIcon icon = new javax.swing.ImageIcon(("/images/imageName.jpg"));
the application works but without the images.......

Loading image from jars only once in oracle forms 10g

Hi,
I have an oracle forms 10g application which loads image from a jar. Every time i click on a button "A" that loads the image "image" on another button "B" in the same screen, a message is displayed in the java console "Loaded image: jar:https://+IP+/forms/java/+myjar+.jar!/image.gif". So after 10 clicks, i get the same message displayed 10 times. In the form, i've called:
SET_CUSTOM_PROPERTY(p_object_name, 1, 'IMAGE_NAME_ON', '/'||p_image_name);My question is the following:
- is there a way to load this image once and use it later without having to load it every time i clik on "A"? if yes, how?
P.S.: if this thread shouldn't be posted in this forum, please redirect me to the right one.
Thanks in advance

Ah okay.
I'm using the rolloverbutton.jar (RollOver Button PJC) [RolloverButton.java -> authors: Steve Button, Duncan Mills].
Here is the part concerning the IMAGE_NAME_ON function:

loadImage(ON,m_imageNameOn);

Problem loading image from jar file referenced by jar file

First, I searched this one and no, I didn't find an answer. Loading images from jar files has been pretty much done to death but my problem is different. Please read on.
I have my application, a straight up executable running from Eclipse. It uses a jar file, call it JarA. JarA launches a GUI that is located in another jar file. Call it JarB. To recap:
My application calls JarA -> JarA loads classes from JarB -> JarB looks for images to place in a GUI it wants to show on the screen
When JarB goes to load an image the following happens:
java.lang.NullPointerException
     at sun.misc.URLClassPath$3.run(URLClassPath.java:316)
     at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
     at sun.misc.URLClassPath.getLoader(URLClassPath.java:313)
     at sun.misc.URLClassPath.getLoader(URLClassPath.java:290)
     at sun.misc.URLClassPath.findResource(URLClassPath.java:141)
     at java.net.URLClassLoader$2.run(URLClassLoader.java:362)
     at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
     at java.net.URLClassLoader.findResource(URLClassLoader.java:359)
     at java.lang.ClassLoader.getResource(ClassLoader.java:977)
     at org.cubrc.gmshell.gui.MainWin.preInit(MainWin.java:152)
     at org.cubrc.gmshell.gui.MainWin.<init>(MainWin.java:135)
The code from JarB that loads the image looks like this:
          URL[] oSearch = {Main.class.getResource("images/")};
          URLClassLoader oLoader = new URLClassLoader(oSearch);
          imgIcon = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("icon.gif"));
          imgMatchRunning = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("gears.gif"));
          imgMatchStill = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("gears-still.gif"));
          imgMagnify = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("magnify.gif"));This looks right to me and JarB certainly has an images directory with those files. But I'm in hell right now because I don't know where to place the images to make this work or if you can even attempt to load images with a dependency chain like this.
Any help very appreciated!

Have you tried to move your image-files out of the jar file and place them in the sam folder as the jar-file? I think that would help.
When you try to load the image-file you get the NullPointerException because the program tries to read a file it can't find. Remember that a jar file IS a file and not a directory.
If you want to read somthing inside the jar-file you need to encode it first.
Have you tried to read the jar-file with winRar. It makes it easy to add and remove files in your jar-file.

PJC - Loading Images from JAR Files

I'm developing a PJC class that involves loading images. I would like to be able to find and use an image contained in a JAR file just like the built-in Forms items do; not the JAR file where my class is contained but any external ones defined in the server archive settings.
I have seen the loadImage method in the demo RolloverButton class but this only loads images from the class's JAR and not any others.
Is there a VButton method or an Oracle loader class for finding image resources from the defined JAR archives? If not, could someone supply some code for achieving this.
Thank you.

Hi,
the jar file name the images are in shouldn't matter for the code as long as the package name is preserved. If you want to see it with your own eyes, do the following
1. Back up demo90.jar
2. Create a copy of it and call it demo90img.jar
3. Open demo90.jar in winzip and remove all images
4. Open demo90img.jar and remove all Java classes
5. add ,/forms90demo/jars/demo90img.jar to the archive_jini tag of a demo you want to test this on
6. Run the application and see the images despite the fact they are now in a separate jar file. Note in the Jinitiator console that the new jar files are downloaded and replace the existing, cached, jars
7. Run an application that doesn't have demo90img.jar configured to see that the images are missing.

Loading Resources from a .JAR

I've read through this forum and searched java.sun.com and have found nothing to solve my problem, although I see many other people are having the same problem.
I wrote a small application that needs to load a text file and images. When I just compile everything and then run it, all is well, my text file is found and my images are displayed. Now the problem is when I package everything into a .JAR file, suddenly my magic stops. Here is the directory structure
- State.class
FiftyStatesGame.class
FlagPanel.class
StatsPanel.class
StatePanel.class
states.txt
/images
/flags
a bunch of .gif images (50 total)
/states
a bunch of .gif images (50 total)
I create my archive with the following command
jar cvf FiftyStates.jar *
and all seems well, I've even changed the extension to .zip to ensure that the images and text file is inside the jar
Now when I try to run the program using
java -cp FiftyStates.jar FiftyStatesGame
the program starts but I get a NullPointerException and my pictures don't load. :-(
I've read in the forum about using
URL imageURL = ClassLoader.getSystemResource(<path to image>);
Image logo = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(imageURL);
and I tried this and once again, it works when not in jar form, but as soon as the application is JARed, I encounter the same problems.
Can anyone give me the answer to this crazy problem?
and I guess I should go one step further and ask, if I want to give this program to a friend with the JRE installed on a windows machine, what command should I put in my batch file to run this program on his machine?
javaw -cp FiftyStates.jar FiftyStatesGame
Thanks for any help and advice

Hi,
Getting the image
=================
It seems to me you can't be too far away from resolving your problem.
I've never actually tried to get an image from a jar file, so I'm guessing that this may not work for you, but I have unzipped a zip file contained within an executable jar.
What I did was this:
    private ZipInputStream findInstallationFile() {
        ClassLoader classLoader;
        URL url;
        ZipInputStream zipInputStream = null;
        InputStream inputStream;
        classLoader = getClass().getClassLoader();
        url = classLoader.getResource(ZIP_RESOURCE_NAME);
        if (url != null) {
            try {
                inputStream = url.openStream();
                zipInputStream = new ZipInputStream(inputStream);
            } catch (IOException ioe) {
                ioe.printStackTrace();
        } else {
            System.err.println("Failed to find resource: " + ZIP_RESOURCE_NAME);
        return zipInputStream;
    }The good thing about this is that you can see whether or not the resource was found in the jar file. If the returned URL is null, then the resource isn't there.
Once you have the InputStream, you can just read the entire contents and do what you like with them.
Executable jars
===============
You can make it easier to run a jar file by including a manifest file. This is just a text file which should be in the META-INF directory in your jar file. The manifest file itself should be called Manifest.mf.
The contents of the Manifest should be:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: FiftyStatesGame
This assumes that your main class is FiftyStatesGame which is in the default package (tut, tut!).
Hope this helps!

Problem loading images from a return value of a function

hello, I write because I uin problem in loading images from a return value of a function.
I created a database with a field "image" of type string, where I put the physical address of the image. I have written like this: {__DIR__ }foto.jpg
Place the code, so you understand better
function imageViewImage(): javafx.scene.image.Image {
connetti();
lass.forName(driverName);
con = DriverManager.getConnection(url,user,"");
stmt = con.createStatement();
var richiesta:String = "SELECT image from viaggio WHERE id_viaggio=7";
rs1 = stmt.executeQuery(richiesta);
var result :String;
rs1.next();
risultato = rs1.getString("image");
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, result);
var imagez = Image{
url:"{result}";
return imagez;
The image is in the source code package
First I connect to the database, run the query and I take the contents of the image.
Can anyone help me?
Is right to put in the database {__DIR__} foto.jpg or do I put only foto.jpg?

Hello unkus_nob,
I would rather suggest you to save only filename of that image like "foto.jpg" in database. And just concat it with the String variable containing "{__DIR__}".
Actually the javafx compiler converts the {__DIR__} to the existing class directory path something like : "jar:file:/..../".
var currentDir ="{__DIR__}";
risultato = "{currentDir}{rs1.getString("immagine"})";
var image = Image{
url:risultato
return image;--NARAYAN G.

Problem in loading images from ClassLoader

Hi,
I m developing a java based application. My application is GUI based. I add an image in a button. This image is placed in jar file. I'm trying to read the image with the help of the class loader, my code goes like this:
URL aCutImageURL = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("CutImage.gif");
ImageIcon aCutImageIcon = new ImageIcon(aCutImageURL);
JButton aBtn = new JButton(aCutImageIcon);
But, when i try to get the image through the class loader sometimes
it works properly but sometimes it returns null, throwing a NullPointerException.
I've also tried to load the image using:
URL aCutImageURL = this.getClass().getResource("CutImage.gif");
but the problem is still there.
Is there any other way to load the images from the jar??
Please reply soon, its urgent!!!
Thanks
Smita

Here is a sample code to get an image in a JarFile :
     public static Image getImage(String jarFileName, String fileName) {
          BufferedImage image = null;
          try {
               JarFile jar = new JarFile(new File(jarFileName), false, JarFile.OPEN_READ);
               JarEntry entry = jar.getJarEntry(fileName);
               BufferedInputStream stream = new BufferedInputStream(jar.getInputStream(entry));
               image = ImageIO.read(stream) ;
          catch (Exception ex) {
               System.out.println(ex);
          return(image);
     }I hope this helps,

Loader will load images from another server, but then we get error on Bitmap operation

I'm developing an app that currently is using Loader to get images from another server. This shouldn't currently work since we are still waiting for the owner of that server to put a crossdomain file in place. However, it does work -- sort of .
Loader can load the images fine, without an error. But then the app has a feature in which we are making a larger duplicate of the image to display in a sidebar, we do this in this manner:
var myBitmap:Bitmap = Bitmap(loader.content);
and when this runs we get a Flash player security error 2122, sandbox violation.
So while I'm hoping all this will fix itself when the crossdomain.xml file is put in place, I'm confused as to why we only get the sandbox error when we make a Bitmap from the image, and not when we initially try to retrieve the image.
(Incidentally: is there a better way to make a "copy" of an image loaded by a Loader, and then change its width and height for simultaneous display in another part of the stage? I don't need to change its actual dimensions -- I just need to change its display width and height.)
Thanks!

The sandbox allows viewing, not editing from another server without a crossdomain.
So, when you try to load it up, it loads it, but "read-only" and gives you an error when you try to "edit" it by making a new Bitmap out of it.
This should resolve itself once that crossdomain is in place.
||EDIT||
I just realized I should clarify my statement a little more.
When you load images from another server without a crossdomain, it allows the load for display only. When you try to load data, it will fail. This is because, XML data, or some other type of data is editable by default, and images are only viewable by default. So, the image fails when you try to convert it into an editable form.

What is the proper way to load images from css in Java 8?
Ref
How to load images from css file in JavaFX 8 - Stack Overflow

There is nothing special to do - you execute the statement from your program just like any other SQL statement. The only thing to be aware of are the privilege/permission issues:
When loading from a file on a client computer:
READ CLIENT FILE privilege is also required for the database user.
Read privileges are required on the directory being read from.
The allow_read_client_file database option must be enabled.
The read_client_file secure feature must be enabled.
Revoking these privileges is also the only way you can prevent a user from executing the statement.

Load image from a cursor .cur file.

Hi all,
I want to create a customized cursor, and I have a Microsoft cursor .CUR file. Can I load this .cur file as an image? - Thank you
Edited by: trangkd on Aug 9, 2011 3:08 PM

Hi,
I've been google-ing up-and-down, but couldn't find any implementation of .cur and Java. If anyone has done so, please post... I was looking for an easy way i.e. couple lines of code to load image from a .cur file .. like we do with gif or jpeg out of the box. The JIMI has an extensive support of many other formats, and it will be an alternative if the graphics department won't give us a new set of cursor images in gif/jpg format.
Thanks so much.

How do you load images from a Win7 machine to iPhone?

Hi. How do you load images from a Windows 7 PC to an iPhone 4? I'd like to load the pictures to use as wallpapers. Thanks.

You CANNOT transfer photos from your computer to your iPhone when connected to your computer as an external drive. This is for transferring photos and/or video from your iPhone's Camera Roll to your computer's hard drive ONLY.
To transfer photos from your computer's hard drive to your iPhone, this is selected under the Photo's tab for your iPhone's sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.

How to load images from BLOB to javascript?

hi, Guys:
I need to load thumbnail images from BLOB to multiple markers' infowindow in Google map . I have implemented Google map in APEX. I load the data suchas text for every marker's infowindow from Oracle database table with PL/JSON, and infowindow works fine. Could anyone give me a suggestion or example so I know how to load images to javascript?
Thanks a lot.
Database: Oracle 11g R2
APEX: APEX 4.1
Thanks.

hi, VC:
Thanks for your kind reply. I need to render these images out of APEX session, actually in javascript that is related to Google map markers' infowindow.
I checked the documents of APEX_UTIL.GET_BLOB_FILE_SRC, but my impression is I need to use it in APEX instead of javascript if my understanding is correct. I already implemented a procedure with PL/SQL to load images from a BLOB column in Oracle database. But the problem is, how can I pass it to javascript code out of APEX to javascript (I could pass text or number from APEX to javascript with PL/JSON though,But I assume that still google map will be within a valid apex session? if so you should be able to use the above api.
Basically what this api does is generates a kind of url to each blob in the database, not sure how google api's deal with this though. Why don't you give it a try?
The other option is to make your pl/sql procedure public and then you can generate the json to include the images urls such as:
     "employees" : [{
               "firstName" : "John",
               "lastName" : "Doe",
               "imgSrc" : "http://somewhere/db_schema.your_download_proc?p_file=#ID#",
               "firstName" : "Anna",
               "lastName" : "Smith"
               "imgSrc" : "http://somewhere/db_schema.your_download_proc?p_file=#ID#",
               "firstName" : "Peter",
               "lastName" : "Jones"
               "imgSrc" : "http://somewhere/db_schema.your_download_proc?p_file=#ID#",
}And then you can use this new attribute to populate the images in javascript using standard img tag
See this tutorial http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14373_01/appdev.32/e13363/up_dn_files.htm
I did not find any method in PL/JSON to pass image object)? So far I only found example to load images from local files to javascript.Hmm..I don't think you should load image objects.
