Hi all, I get an error after using NetBeans to select an image file for a JLabel icon.
IDE code that works: gallows.setIcon(new javax.swing.ImageIcon("K:\\Hangman\\images\\gallows.gif")); IDE code that fails when I run the project: gallows.setIcon(new javax.swing.ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("/gallows.gif"))); How I'm selecting the image location: 1) from the IDE click the [...] next to the icon property of my label then choose classpath and click [select file]. 2) I am able to navigate to the file correctly and it is displayed in the preview window. I can even see it when I click on the test form button. If I run my file I get an error: netbeans Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException at javax.swing.ImageIcon.(ImageIcon.java:138) at Keyboard.initComponents(Keyboard.java:175) at Keyboard.(Keyboard.java:15) <following errors removed by me> I hope someone can help me Thanks View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4099593#4099593 Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=4099593 _______________________________________________ jboss-user mailing list jboss-user@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/jboss-user
