reading a pdf via his Path

Question

I ve placed a pdf docment in the same place of my java class but I still got a NullPointer error. I need to place the pdf document in the same place of my class. this's my code:

    private static final String sourcePath = "rockTest.pdf";
    inputStream = MyClass.class.getResourceAsStream(sourcePath);

sourcePath is the name of the pdf document.

thanks

@khmarbaise I placed at the same place of the java class: into the src package — Inès Belhouchet, May 20 '14 at 13:01
