my program works but when i export it as runnable jar file it doesn't works..
it is a simple gui program with pictures.
-when i run it from cmd it says it cant load the pictures.
-when i run it from elipse it works.
the code looks like this-
try {
faces[0].Questionset(ImageIO.read(new File("src\\Cristiano.jpg")),"cristiano ronaldo");
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
faces[1].Questionset(ImageIO.read(new File("src\\Jim.jpg")),"jim carry");
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
etc
how can i fix that?

Hello.
When you run at the command prompt you will need to do the appropriate CLASSPATH settings. Check if you have done that?

I had this trouble a few months back. There was a little disagreement on the source of the trouble. It looks like you're already using ImageIO.read, which ended up being the solution for me. It might be the way you're reading the files. I think those slashes in the file path are supposed to go the other way.
Here is the link to my thread with a similar problem. Hopefully that will help.
Also, used the forum software's code tags ( that's {code="java"}{/code} but with square brackets instead of curly ones) to post code segments. It makes it much easier to read.

Can you put the image files in the jar file and use the getResource() method to get a URL to read them instead of trying to read the files from the PC's disk?

Re: my program works but when i export it as runnable jar file it doesn't works..
it seems to work only when i put the dictionary src in the same folder as the jar file..
how can i use getResource()?
i tried
faces[0].Questionset(ImageIO.read(getResource("src\\Cristi ano.jpg")),"cristiano ronaldo");
but it returns null..
Re: my program works but when i export it as runnable jar file it doesn't works..
Is the src folder in the jar file or on the claspath? The getResource() method looks for the resource on the classpath. When using java -jar to execute the contents of a jar file, the jar file's contents is on the classpath.
--- Update ---
Use / not \ in the resource path.

in the classpath path.
so what should i write instade of
faces[0].Questionset(ImageIO.read(getResource("src//Cristiano.jpg")),"cristiano ronaldo");
?
Re: my program works but when i export it as runnable jar file it doesn't works..
Use a single / in the path. You need two \\s because the \ is the "escape" character for the compiler.

What is the full text of the error message?
Try doing some debugging to find where the problem is:
What does the getResource() method return?
What does the ImageIO.read() method return?
Break the compound statement you are using into single, simple statements and print the results returned by each method.
