Get path as String for file in source package structure

[Petterson Mikael]

Hi,

In a junit test:

public void testSendMsgWithAttachment(){
try {
SendMessage send = new SendMessage();
send.sendMsg(from, to, cc, bcc, subject, text, attachment);
fail("Test failed since no IOException was thrown");
} catch (Exception e) {
fail("Test failed du to unexpected exception" + e.toString());
}
}

The String 'attachment' is the path to attachment-file.

I have the file ( Attachment.txt) in my package structure (CVS):

net.sourceforge.app.message.test

How can I get a path as String that is possible to use in my tes ( so I
can retrieve the attachment).

cheers,

//mikael

I think it depends a lot on the implementation of
SendMessage.sendMsg() and what it expects as the last parameter. E.g. does
it accept relative paths, or only absolute paths? Does it accept URLs?
etc.

First, your test looks wrong.
public void testSendMsgWithAttachment(){
try {
SendMessage send = new SendMessage();
send.sendMsg(from, to, cc, bcc, subject, text, attachment);
fail("Test failed since no IOException was thrown");
} catch (IOException e) {
} catch (Exception e) {
fail("Test failed du to unexpected exception" + e.toString());
}
}

To get the URL of the attachment try:
URL attachmentUrl = getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("net/
sourceforge/app/message/test/Attachment.txt");
