Simple class loading issue

[kannan_ekanath]

I am having an xml file "sonic-config.xml" and in my java code i am reading that file from the class path as follows,


InputStream is = new ClassLoaderProvider() .getResourceAsStream(configResource); //here configResource is "sonic-config.xml"


I have to put this sonic-config.xml . In fact i have put it in {JBOSS_HOME}/server/default/lib folder. But it does not pick it from there.

Observations:
I found the jboss-service.xml including the jars from the lib folder. I added an entry like this,


//this line is to add lib directory itself to class path.


But this doesnt seem to work. Is there any way, i can get this working?

Change your code to:

InputStream inputStream = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(configResource);

instead of:

InputStream inputStream = new ClassLoaderProvider().getResourceAsStream(configresource);

Hei,
The line will solve the issue but the call that i gave u was the one i debugged and the method call is in a CoreUtils library class which is reused across all apps+platforms implying that i cannot change the line.

I was looking for some setting that is required in jboss-service to load it.

I am using jboss-4.0.2 (I think jboss have reloaded the class loading fundamentals in this release).

Any thoughts again? I apologise for not saying in my earlier post, that the code-piece was part of a Core Library that i cannot presently change?
Thanks

InputStream inputStream = new ClassLoaderProvider().getResourceAsStream(configresource);

Basically this method call is part of a generic service locator library. I wanted to know if there is a fix at my application level, for this?
