Hi, Here is the dependency i am giving in geronimo-application.xml (i created this file only for giving this dependency)
<dependency> <uri>twe/properties</uri> </dependency> <dependency> <uri>twe/properties.jar</uri> </dependency> One is a jar file and the other is the folder itself. The code snippet is a bit complicated one. I will give a simplified version - InputStream in = ConfigReader.class .getResourceAsStream(CONFIG_PROPERTIES); Properties configprops = new Properties(); configprops.load(in); String filename = configprops.getProperty("xmlfilename"); URL fileURL = ConfigReader.class.getResource(filename); String xsdFilename = configprops.getProperty("xsdfilename"); URL xsdURL = ConfigReader.class.getResource(xsdFilename); _instance = new ConfigReader(fileURL, xsdURL); configHash = new HashMap(); DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance(); factory.setValidating(false); factory.setNamespaceAware(true); DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder(); Document document = builder.parse(fileURL.openStream()); //here a null pointer exception is thrown probably //because it could not locate the file Element root = document.getDocumentElement(); loadProperties(root); .... .... .... } >I'd expect either one of these to work.
