sysLoader.getResource() problem in java

Question

I am having following lines of code.

sysLoader = (URLClassLoader)Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
url = sysLoader.getResource(\"tempFile.txt\"         


        

Answer 1

This is known by Sun/Oracle, their advice is to use URI objects which will remove the %20 characters:

Instead of doing this:

FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(url.getFile());

you can force any %-escaped characters to be decoded by first converting the URL to a URI, and then use the path component of the URI as the filename:

URI uri = new URI(url.toString());
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(uri.getPath());
