Im trying to load a .jasper file to generate pdf. The .jasper file is located in the package of the project.(Not externally in the drive) Its working in local, but when I deploy the same project in the server, its not generating the pdf. Im loading the file like

 File f = new File(MyUtil.class.getresource("<path of the .jasper>").asFile();

Its returning the total path of the file i.e. from D:/workspace/

How can I handle the same in server?

It is not a file, so you can't create a `File` object from its URL. – RealSkeptic Feb 22 '17 at 08:10

@RealSkeptic, its a file only and its working in local – shaik sha Feb 22 '17 at 08:12
It's a resource. When you pack it in a JAR, it is no longer a file. In local it works because it's not packed into a JAR. – RealSkeptic Feb 22 '17 at 08:15
