createImage problem in J2ME

[aktarjahan2003]

Hi,
Trying to show an image from my midlet but for some reason it throw the exception.
Can any body point me the reason, I use Eclipse. Where the image duke.png should be located in folder?

try{
im = Image.createImage("/duke.png");
}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println("** Error creating image");
}

Thanks

it should be located at the root of your jar. (usually, you have a "res" folder that is included in the build path, this is where ressources go).

If your issue does not get resolved even after following the post from njzk2, What is the exception you are getting?

I got the exception
System.out.println("** Error creating image"); -> this is printed in console.

I tried to put the copy of duke.png in all folder (smaller, bigger letter etc but did not help.)

by exception, raj means the exception that you catch.
try something, like e.printStackTrace() ...

As you are working with the Eclipse IDE, there will one res folder inside the project. Put the image here. Make sure that while you are trying to create the image, you are typing the exact name of the image inside the code, duke.png.

try{
im = Image.createImage("/duke.png");
}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println("** Error creating image");
} 

Please check, this must work.Also check the extension of the image, whether this is in lower or upper case.

do wat Raj is saying if you still get problem then check what is the extension of the image. Like if you create your image on paint the its extension is Like .PNG which is different from .png . Try to check it may be you change .PNG to .png this problem coming many time.

or try to create image by

im = Image.createImage("/duke.PNG");
