I need to parse an XML file hello.xml which is in WEB-INF/classes folder
My Action class calls a helper class called XMLMenuBuilder which needs to parse the menu.xml

the code:

LogonAction.java

Code:

XMLMenuBuilder builder = new XMLMenuBuilder();
Vector menuV = (Vector)builder.renderMenu();

XMLMenuBuilder.java

Code:

public Vector renderMenu() throws AppException
{
  DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
  Document document = builder.parse( new File(xmlfile) );
}

My Problem is how can I make the builder.parse access the menu.xml file under the WEB-INF/classes folder instead of searching for it on the file system
any ideas?
