Well, I download my JAR file then access it locally...
URL[] myJARs = new URL[] { new URL("file:/C:/somedir/myfiles.jar") };
URLClassLoader loader = new URLClassLoader(myJARs);
URL soundURL = loader.getResource("com/saic/sounds/sound.wav");
The resulting soundURL looks like (note the "jar" at the beginning and
the "!"):
jar:file:/C:/somedir/myfiles.jar!/com/saic/sounds/sound.wav
If the JAR file were still on your webserver, it would look like:
jar:http://yourserver.com/somedir/sounds.jar!/com/yourcompany/sound.wav
So it's always:
jar:<jar url>!<file spec within jar>

Joel,
Nope. We're interested as well. Thanks for the posting. What is the
URL
that you use for the classloader, just the one you used to load the Jar
file with further specification for the file you are looking for?
For example:
- Original download JAR file: http://foo.com/myApp/allfiles.jar
- Access to a file in the jar file known as sounds/ItWorks.wav would be
http://foo.com/myApp/allfiles.jar/sounds/ItWorks.wav
Is that how it works with a JAR?
