Resources in NetBeans

Hi :) I have some problem with my resources in NetBeans. Already I add them into project, and when I run whole project in NetBeans, everything works fine :) But when I clean it and build, I have no idea where I should have those resources (app can't find my image).

Every image and font are in my packages (example: com.project.resources.images), command which I used to get it is:

ImageIO.read(this.getClass().getResource(path)

If someone could help me it would be awesome.

Look into the application jar (a zip format), with 7zip, WinZip or so, if you find the resources, you can do something like getClass().getResource("/resources/someimg.png").

There is one issue: in a jar (and on Linux/MacOSX) the file names are case sensitive, under Windows not, so make sure about the correct case-sensitive spelling.

If it seems that on running from the IDE the files are on the class path but do not get into the jar, better pick a Maven build infrastructure with predefined directory conventions.
