I have a .NET assembly that was converted from a jar file. This library looks for files in its classpath. I keep getting missing resource exceptions when running the application.

I have tried:
– Putting the resource file in my bin folder
– Putting the resource file in my source folder, including it in the VS project and setting copy local to on
– setting a CLASSPATH environment variable to a folder containing the resource file

None of the above have worked. Does anyone know where IKVM expects to see its classpath or another way I can get my program to see the resource file?

    According to the ikvm documentation, ikvm behaves similar to java. This should work:

    ikvm -cp .;relative/path/to/jar/lib.jar com.example.MyClass

    Got it – loading resources from the classpath does work in Java but not in the compiled .net assembly. The -resource parameter could be the one that does the trick but unfortunately there’s no example on the ByteCode Compiler page.
