Re: AW: [platform-core-dev] Getting the input stream for a resource - ca

[Pascal Rapicault <Pascal_Rapicault@xxxxxxxxxx>]

If this fails, it is because "data"
is not on your classpath.
The code you gave in the first place
was correct:
        get
the URL to the file in the bundle, open the stream.

IFile is a workspace concept which has
nothing to do with the lookup of files insisde plugins.

Try:

    InputStream in = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/data/myData.txt");

That should work for any OSGi platform.

Kind regards,

PN> The key seems to be to get an IFile for my URL, then the IFile will
give

the
