JasperReports class path

I want to include the .jrxml file in my NetBeans swing project. I use NetBeans 7.0.1. I created a package inside source package called "rep" and created a simple .jrxml file called "rp.jrxml". I have installed the iReport plugin in NetBeans. When I set a outer .jrxml file, it is showed ("D:/MyReports/firstreport.jrxml") but when I set the NetBeans package path, it was not shown. Here is my code. 

try {
       String reportSource="/rep/rp.jrxml";  //and also "rep/rp.jrxml" is used.no result.            
        Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<String, Object>();
        JasperReport jasperReport = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(reportSource);
        JasperPrint jasperPrint = JasperFillManager.fillReport(jasperReport, params, new JREmptyDataSource());
        JasperViewer.viewReport(jasperPrint, false);
    } catch (Exception e) {e.printStackTrace();
    }

Then the following error is given; 

net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: rep\rp.jrxml (The system cannot find the path specified)

How I can keep jrxml files inside my NetBeans project and use jrxml files inside the project?

Here the solution.It is better to provide an absolute path in the jar file itself.Also when the jar is run,using *.jasper file is better to use instead of .jrxml it may cause for the speed of generating the report as well.Then that .jasper can be sent to JasperFillManager as a inputstream. That is it.

This code works for me:

public class TestJasper {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            String reportSource = "resources/report1.jrxml";
            Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<String, Object>();
            JasperReport jasperReport = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(reportSource);
            JasperPrint jasperPrint = JasperFillManager.fillReport(jasperReport, params, new JREmptyDataSource());
            JasperViewer.viewReport(jasperPrint, false);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println(e.getMessage());
        }
    }
}

My project structure:

build
    classes
        TestJasper.class
dist 
nbproject
resources
    report1.jrxml 
src
    TestJasper.java

UPDATED:
For solving net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRException: No report compiler set for language : null problem you can try to set groovy report language and add groovy-all-jdk14 library to classpath.
You can get groovy library here.

The sample of report header with language set to groovy: 

<jasperReport xmlns="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports" 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
xsi:schemaLocation="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/xsd/jasperreport.xsd" 
... 
language="groovy" 
...>
