Images are not showing up...

[J Bone]

I have created a Java application using JBuilder. My directory structure is
the following(these are generic names):
ProjectFolder
bak
src
package
.java files
images
.jpg files
classes
package
.class files
This structure works fine in JBuilder and jpg images show as they should.
I am using the following code to add images to some JButtons:
ImageIcon("./images/*.jpg")
My problem is when I put the classes/package directory in a jar file. I am also putting the images directory in the same jar. The executable jar does not show the images on the executing program. What have I done wrong? I am using winzip to compress files; I am then changing the file extension to jar. The program executes fine, but without images on my JButtons.
Thanks for any help,
Jason

If you use icon No. 4, you may add a code-block ([ code]) around your dir-structure, so that we see what you mean:

foo
bar
foobar
bar
barfoo
barbar

You may not just use "./images/foo.jpg", but

/** Take image from .jar.
@param owner the owning Component - has to be a class of the jar, because this is how we determine the jar.
@param urlname the name of the image, i.e.: images/demo.jpg (note: no leading slash!)
*/
public static Image getImage (Object owner, String urlname)
{
Image img = null;
try
{
//Debug.it ("urlimage=/" + urlname);
URL url = owner.getClass().getResource ("/" + urlname);
img = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage (url);
}
catch (NullPointerException npe)
{
System.err.println ("Image not found " + urlname + " owner: " + owner);
}
return img;
}

I don't think you can show ".jpg" images in file.
