How to convert InputStream to FileInputStream

Question

I have this line in my program :

InputStream Resource_InputStream=this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(\"Resource_Name\");

Answer 1

You need something like:

    URL resource = this.getClass().getResource("/path/to/resource.res");
    File is = null;
    try {
        is = new File(resource.toURI());
    } catch (URISyntaxException e1) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e1.printStackTrace();
    }
    try {
        FileInputStream input = new FileInputStream(is);
    } catch (FileNotFoundException e1) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e1.printStackTrace();
    }

But it will work only within your IDE, not in runnable JAR. I had same problem explained here.
