file

I am trying to load properties from a file (test.properties)

The code I use is as follows:

URL url = getClass().getResource("../resources/test.properties");
properties.load(url.openStream());

But when executing the second line I get a NPE. (null pointer exception)

I'm not sure what's wrong here... I have checked that the file exists at the location where URL points to...

Any help is appreciated....

I noticed however, that writing a regular .properties file in the style of foo=bar fu=baz also works. This would mean a lot less typing (and maybe easier to read and more efficient as well). So what… >>> More
