access text file using relative path in J2me with Eclipse Pulsar

[Jayesh Pokar]

Hi,
I am beginner in j2me and I am trying to access one text file but was unable to do it.

I am trying to access in this way

InputStream is=this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("res/test.txt");

Eclipse Project Structure
MyApp
- src
- res
-test.txt

I saw build path and res folder is included.

Please tell me the solution......Thanks...

try without res/ part in the path

thanks Nishan for reply.....

I tried with /filename and it works fine.

By specifying path in this way is what we are telling start looking for file from root, am i right?

So it will first look into src folder and then to res folder and so on, wherever it finds the file it take that file.

I want to specify look only into res folder, and I am not able to do that.

I tried with...
res/filename
/res/filename
./res/filename

where I am wrong?

You already it correctly.
The res directory is designed for all your resources such as media and property files. Of course you can have nested directories such as res/properties or res/images etc
