Image problems

Im using JOptionPanes and building an RPG as a project.

I have .BMP maps and I want to use them inside my JOptionPane as to show the user where he/she is at.

I have NO idea how to do this and none of my books quite explain it clearly.

Thanks,
Nick

See: Lesson: Working with Images (The Java™ Tutorials > 2D Graphics)

You can load the image 'globally' (eg a full path to the image - not recommended) or package them into your jar and access it like:

Code :

---

URL url = getClass().getResource("YourImagePathInJar");

---

To display in a Swing app, you usually will create an ImageIcon from the image, and add that to a JLabel.

Didn't help. Thanks though.
