John Casey sent this method a while ago that might be useful:
private File getFile( String resourceName )
{
ClassLoader cloader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
URL resource = cloader.getResource( resourceName );
if ( resource == null )
{
throw new IllegalArgumentException( "Could not get resource: " +
resourceName );
}
return new File( resource.getPath() );
}
