JRXML inside JAR file

[rolandc85]

If i had compiled a runnable jar file with JRXML files inside, how do i configure my java codes to load the JRXML file in the JAR, instead of having a separate folder containing it?

Thanks a lot in advance.
Best Regards,

I dont load JRXML from jars but JASPER files. It should be easy enough to do like that:

 

JasperReport report = (JasperReport) JRLoader.loadObject(this.getClass().getResource(filename));

 

Where "this" is a class inside a JAR boostrapping the report and filename is something like "com/foo/bar/bla.jasper" This makes the same classloader loading the resource which also loaded the "this" class inside the JAR. Then you can be sure that the classloader can actually handle JARs.
