I’m running scala from the command line like this

scala -classpath dir/my.jar

dir/my.jar contains a file /my-resource.xml.

In the scala REPL, I do this

classOf[Object].getResourceAsStream(“/my-resource.xml”)

But I always get back null. Any idea why?

    You’re asking the wrong classloader. The classloader who loaded java.lang.Object is probably the boot classloader; he doesn’t have access to your classes.

    Try this:

    classOf[MyOwnClass].getResourceAsStream(...)
