To get Windows standard icons

Question

How can I, from inside a Java application, get Windows applications standard icons, like Word's, Notepad's, etc.?

Answer 1

Make a gif with the graphic you want on the button.. Then you can add the gif to a button with the following code:
    javax.swing.JButton print = new javax.swing.JButton();
    javax.swing.ImageIcon ImageIcon3 = new javax.swing.ImageIcon
            (new java.net.URL("http://whatever.domain.net/CTprint.gif"));
    print.setIcon(ImageIcon3);
    //add button to frame / panel / whatever..There's a way to put the gif in a jar file instead of using a URL, but I find the URL's are less problematic.. And I dont have any code laying around for that to show you..
