Load application package image using File

Question

Good morning,

How do I load an image that is inside a project package using the Java File class?

Example, I have an image inside the "img" folder of my project and I want to upload this image to create a File Object:

File file = new File("img/logo.png");

But he can’t find the file at all.

You can use the method https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Class.html#getResourceAsStream(java.lang.String) or the getResource version that returns the URL to the file that is part of your classpath.
