Compile Java AWT project via command line












1















I'm writing simple game in Java AWT. I can compile it and run via IntelliJ without problem. I encounter problem when I'm trying to compile it via cmd.



In my project i've got an image in src/player.png.



In src/GUI/MyCanvas.java I load it player = ImageIO.read(new File("player.png"));.



When i execute javac Main.java -cp . in src/ it compile without problem but when i java Main it can not load image.



How should i compile it via cmd?

          Some ide's compile differently when handling files inside the jar. You should add a / behind player.png. Like so:



          player = ImageIO.read(new File("/player.png"));


          If the file is inside the jar you can try:



          player = ImageIO.read(getClass().getResourceAsStream("../player.png"));
