jME2: Easiest way to load resources from current working directory?

Troubleshooting General Help

I know this is bad organization, but this is only for a quick-and-dirty prototype of our game. I just have all our art resources (models, textures) in the working directory, and I just want to load everything from there (it’s the easiest thing to do for now). However, a problem I’m running into is that what I’m doing doesn’t seem to work on PCs - only OSX. Here’s basically my code:





String pwd = System.getProperty(“user.dir”).replace(’’, ‘/’).replaceAll(" “, “%20”);

System.out.println(“Pwd = " + pwd);

RelativeResourceLocator locator = new RelativeResourceLocator(new URI(“file”, “//”+pwd+”/”, null));

ResourceLocatorTool.addResourceLocator( ResourceLocatorTool.TYPE_MODEL, locator );

ResourceLocatorTool.addResourceLocator( ResourceLocatorTool.TYPE_TEXTURE, locator );





That doesn’t seem to work. I either get a URI formatting exception, which is why I added the replace’s, and even then it still doesn’t find my resources. I get resources with this code:







OgreLoader loader = new OgreLoader();

MaterialLoader matLoader = new MaterialLoader();

URL matURL = ResourceLocatorTool.locateResource(

ResourceLocatorTool.TYPE_TEXTURE, material_url);

URL meshURL = ResourceLocatorTool.locateResource(

ResourceLocatorTool.TYPE_MODEL, meshxml_url);



So am I using URI’s correctly, or am I forgetting something? Thanks.

Heres some code to add a ResourceLocator to find any kind of resource:

Just do

return new File("."+File.separator+string).toURI().toURL();

to get the file from the current working dir.
