privileges to get the resource

[rikhardw]

Hi, I have a problem with an applet. I am trying to load images from a
class that is not the main executing class of the applet, I am using
the following code
Component output_comp;
URL imgurl =
getClass().getClassLoader().getResource(("images/image1.gif"));
Image img = output_comp.getToolkit().createImage(imgurl);
The imgurl that is returned is null so I believe that this is due to
the caller not having adequate privileges to get the resource. Does
anyone know how to fix this problem or know what problem I have?

You believe wrong. If that were the case, the call would
throw a SecurityAccessException or similar.

The problem here is that the resource is simply not
being found.

We'll start with the usual..
1) URL (of your broken applet)?

As an aside...

//original
URL imgurl =
getClass().getClassLoader().getResource(("images/image1.gif"));
// 1st variant
URL imgurl1 =
getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("images/image1.gif");
// 2nd variant
URL imgurl2 =
getClass().getResource("images/image1.gif");

I suspect it will make no difference, but give each variant
a whirl, and report the results.
