Reading a file over a network path
- by Sin5k4
I have this weird issue,when I use
> File FileToRead = new File("\\\\MYSERVER\\MYFOLDER\\MYFOLDER\\MYPICTURE.JPG");
to read a file over a network,all I get is a null pointer exception.Normally a local path works with this,but when on a network path,I just couldn't manage to get it to work.Any ideas?
PS:oh and my network connection seems to work,no issues when accessing data in windows explorer...
More of the code:
File FileToRead = new File("file://DOKSERVICE/Somefolder/ProductImage/01001.JPG");
// File FileToRead = new File("c:\\dog.jpg"); local test
BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(FileToRead);
BufferedImage resizedimage = new BufferedImage(260, 260,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB );
Graphics2D g = resizedimage.createGraphics();
g.drawImage(image, 0, 0, 260, 260, null);
g.dispose();
picture.setIcon(new ImageIcon(image));
