    copied!<p>My program has the following path in the .jar file<br> <code>src/test/Program.class</code></p> <p>and my program is as follow...</p> <p><code>Program.java</code></p> <pre><code>package test; import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; import javax.swing.JEditorPane; import javax.swing.JFrame; public class Program { JEditorPane editorPane; public Program() { File file = new File("temp.htm"); try { file.createNewFile(); editorPane = new JEditorPane(); editorPane.setPage(Program.class.getResource("temp.htm")); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } public JEditorPane getEditorPane(){ return editorPane; } public static void main(String[] args) { JFrame frame = new JFrame(); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); frame.setSize(400, 400); frame.setVisible(true); Program p = new Program(); frame.getContentPane().add(p.getEditorPane()); } } </code></pre> <p>The problem is that I have compiled the program in a <code>.jar</code> file.<br> The <code>file.createNewFile();</code> creates the <code>temp.htm</code> file outside the <code>.jar</code> file<br> So when <code>editorPane.setPage(Program.class.getResource("temp.htm"));</code> is called the file is not found as it searches for file inside the <code>test</code> package.<br> How to <code>setPage()</code> the <code>temp.htm</code> file whiich is outside the <code>.jar</code> file but in the same folder as the <code>.jar</code> file?<br> As the <code>temp.htm</code> is a localfile and I want a relative path instead of an absolute path. </p> <p>Thanks.</p>
