Apache Velocity ---ResourceNotFoundException

[Ravi Kiran Va]

Hi

I need to work on Apache Velocity , so i started running a sample desktop program for which i was unsuccessful .

I have created a Template and kept it in my c drive with the name ClassMethods.vm

In my Application i am trying to refer this in this way

        Template t = Velocity.getTemplate("c:\\ClassMethods.vm");

for which the exception thrown is

Exception in thread "main" org.apache.velocity.exception.ResourceNotFoundException: Unable to find resource 'c:\ClassMethods.vm'
at org.apache.velocity.runtime.resource.ResourceManagerImpl.loadResource(ResourceManagerImpl.java:483)

at org.apache.velocity.app.Velocity.getTemplate(Velocity.java:383)
at velocity.CallClassMethods.main(CallClassMethods.java:13)

Please help .

I didn't try Velocity but my guess is your Velocity templates should be in you class path.
Not sure but worth trying.
