[jboss-user] [Beginners Corner] - Parsing XML file out of jar

Hello, I am trying to parse a XML file out of my jar which is deployed in JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy. But when I load the file with String path="DBConfig.xml"; | configFile=builder.build(new InputSource(path)); | I always get the following exception: anonymous wrote : 14:51:36,671 ERROR [STDERR] java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\j2ee\jboss420\bin\DBConfig.xml | 14:51:36,671 ERROR [STDERR] at org.jboss.net.protocol.file.FileURLConnection.connect(FileURLConnection.java:94) | 14:51:36,671 ERROR [STDERR] at org.jboss.net.protocol.file.FileURLConnection.getInputStream(FileURLConnection.java:103) | 14:51:36,671 ERROR [STDERR] at org.apache.xerces.impl.XMLEntityManager.setupCurrentEntity(Unknown Source) | 14:51:36,671 ERROR [STDERR] at org.apache.xerces.impl.XMLVersionDetector.determineDocVersion(Unknown Source) | 14:51:36,671 ERROR [STDERR] at org.apache.xerces.parsers.XML11Configuration.parse(Unknown Source) Here C:\j2ee\jboss420\ is my JBOSS_HOME directory. Is there any way to load the file without using the classloader? For example a standard path in the jar file where such files can be stored? Or can I configure JBoss to search for the file in a specified directory? Thanks for any help on this issue.
