Reading a zip/text file present in a MAC Bundle
Hi All,

Do any one know how to read a file which is present inside a
MAC Bundle/app?.

I have a java application/bundle on MAC. The requirement is to read
a zip file which is present inside that bundle.


I tried ZIPFIle and ZipEntry etc , but they all throwed
FileNotFoundException. as the path is something like

"/app_name.app/contents/resources/file.zip"

Has anyone encountered this before?

Thanks ,
Prasannaa

Add the following to your Info.plist file

[code]
<key>Java</key>
<dict>
...
...
<key>WorkingDirectory</key>
<string>$APP_PACKAGE/Contents/Resources/</string>
</dict>
[code]

The file can then be accessed as new File("file.zip");
