True, but not very practical, is it?

The path used by the FileInputStream constructor is relative to the current working directory of the JVM; it has nothing to do with the package structure. If you want paths relative to your class files, use Class.getResource() to open the file instead.

Yup ,especially when the application is to shipped to different machine. Class.getResourceAsStream or ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream is good candidate then.

I am not sure why you commented out the line

FileInputStream url= this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("properties");



Is there a reason for changing the path from "properties" to "../properties"?

Try the code below:


Also please provide the name of your properties file as well location.

ClassLoader does not add any extension !! Provide complete file name with extn if there is any.
