If your file is in the resource folder just use
reportContext.getResource("yourfile"); This will return a path to the
file which you should be able to open and read. I used it once to get
an image from a jar file like:
var jarfile = reportContext.getResource("myimages.jar");
fulljarimage = "jar:"+jarfile.toString()+"!/BIRT1_2ndEd_frontsmall.jpg";
