Have an following error code when run the code Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "java.net.URL.toExternalForm()" because "location" is null
Hello everyone, I am still a student and new in Java Programming
I want to insert an image for background in JFrame using Apache Netbeans. I've tried following some tutorials on internet using labels and when I try to run them I get output like this:
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "java.net.URL.toExternalForm()" because "location" is null
