I am trying to make a basic music player using things that I have recently learned, (I am new to java). Whenever I run my code in Eclipse, it works perfectly fine. All the buttons have their icons, and everything works perfectly.
However, when I export the project into an executable jar file, it seems as if the file cannot access the icons.
I'm not using a direct path, I'm using "src/musicPlayer/restartButton.png"
I'm using IconImages to create the icons that the JButtons use, and if you want to criticize me for using Swing, it's the only thing I know how to create a GUI with, so please don't. If you need to see the code, it's right here:
