       ctx = new InitialContext(env);
       dirCtx = (DirContext) ctx.lookup("pcd:portal_content/");
       PcdSearchControls pcdSearchControls = new PcdSearchControls();
       pcdSearchControls.setReturningObjFlag(false);
       pcdSearchControls.setSearchScope(
       PcdSearchControls.SUBTREE_WITH_UNIT_ROOTS_SCOPE);
       dirCtx.addToEnvironment(
       Constants.APPLY_ASPECT_TO_CONTEXTS,
       Constants.APPLY_ASPECT_TO_CONTEXTS);
       NamingEnumeration ne = dirCtx.search("","(com.sap.portal.pcd.gl.ObjectClass=com.sapportals.portal.*iview*)",
                                                                   pcdSearchControls);
       while (ne.hasMoreElements()) {
       IPcdSearchResult searchResult =
       (IPcdSearchResult) ne.nextElement();
       String location = "pcd:portal_content/" + searchResult.getName();

try something like this :
if image file:
ImageIcon image = (new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("yourpackage/mypackage/image.gif")));
if text file:
InputStream is = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream( "yourpackage/mypackage/myfile.xml");
but all in all , getClass will consume a lot computational power(time). If you have to access so many file, it'd better put it outside the jar
