deployment and resource bundle problem

[JHM Lin]

hello all
I have a problem when deploying a war file into Java Web Start. The war file consists of several jar files, and one of the jar files contanins several *.properties files(such as system.properties). I attempt to find the properties file by the following code:
InputStream is = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/system.properties");
Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.load(is);
String initCtxFactory = prop.getProperty("myproperties");
but it fails to find the properties file.
Can anyone provide me with the solution to this problem?
Thanks in advance!

Hey...I'm no expert on this, but I solved it once by asking the classloader to provide me with the resource.
Try this:

 ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().getResource("system.properties"); 

Hmm..Give it a shot.
