My project is a eclipse Java project and it structure is
\Game\src
\Game\resources
But this code returns a exception:
image = new ImageIcon(new URL("resources\\Monster.png"));
java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: resources\Monster.png
What's wrong?
In eclipse, make the resources folder a Source folder so that it adds the files inside it to the classpath when it launches your application.
Then use
image = new ImageIcon(YourClass.class.getResource("/monster.png"));
where YourClass is your class.
The Class#getResource(String) call
Finds a resource with a given name.
It does this by looking for it in your application's classpath based on some naming rules described in the javadoc.
