Question

I have a HttpServletResponse object and need to write a file contained in the jar. The following code segments do not work for me.

URI uri = <myclass>.class.getResource("/" + filename).toURI(); 
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
File f = new File(uri); 
FileReader bis = new FileReader(f);
char[] buff = new char[1024];
int bytesRead;
// Simple read/write loop.
while (-1 != (bytesRead = bis.read(buff, 0, buff.length))) {
    out.write(buff, 0, bytesRead);
}

I know that this will work

InputStream inputStream = <myclass>.class.getResourceAsStream("/" + filename);

but I cannot get the PrintWriter out.write to write the inputStream.

Can anyone tell me how this can be done.

Thanks

Resolved using the following

InputStream inputStream = KCSSchemaController.class.getResourceAsStream("/" + schemaname);

OutputStream output = response.getOutputStream();

ByteStreams.copy(inputStream, output);

output.flush();
