I am upgrading from jboss4.2.3 to jboss 5.0.0 GA and while deploying my ear i am getting null pointer exception. In my ear I have a jar file, which contains a properties file say myFile.properties and I want to access this file in one of my java class which is also thr in the jar in pkg something like abc\efg\pkg1\pkg2\xyz.java. InputStream input = XYZ.class.getResourceAsStream("/myFile.properties"); Here m getting a input as null. I guess its something related to classloaders :-( , the same thing works fine with jboss4.2.3. please provide your valuable solution and let me know in case any more info is reqd. Thanks in advance. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/614416#614416] Start a new discussion in Beginner's Corner at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
