How to use getResourceLocator().getImage to get image by absolute path [message #891848]

Hi All,

I'm having the issue of using getResourceLocator().getImage in edit plugin

I want to locate image that isn't in the eclipse workspace.
and the image in another windows partition. ex: G:/image.bmp
How can I do that ?

Thanks

Beck,

If you have an absolute path you can create a file: URL from it so you
don't need to use the resource locator in that case...

Thanks Ed for your response again Smile

,

I've tried getImage(URL) directly as

getImage("file://G:/image.bmp" );

but I get this error
An error has occurred. See error log for more details.
The image resource 'file://G:/word.bmp' could not be located

also, it gives me the same error when I use getImage("file:\\\\G:\image.bmp" );

Am I missing something ?
