John Casey sent this method a while ago that might be useful:

private File getFile( String resourceName )
{
   ClassLoader cloader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
   URL resource = cloader.getResource( resourceName );

   if ( resource == null )
   {
       throw new IllegalArgumentException( "Could not get resource: " +
resourceName );
   }

   return new File( resource.getPath() );
}
