getResourceAsStream problem ?!

[metebalci]

There is a call to getResourceAsStream in constructor of a class (MyCanvas) which is extended from FullCanvas.

When I call it using MyCanvas.class.getResourceAsStream(), it works on prototype sdk 2 series 60 simulator, but application quits as soon as it run on n-gage.

If I call it using getClass().getResourceAsStream(), it works.

Why?

Use getClass() to get a reference to a class. You can't use the .class property in MIDP implementations - I think it needs an exception class that isn't in the MIDP API.

OK. I think I missed that, I havent read something about that in any documentation.

Thanks Graham...

I don't think it's mentioned anywhere! I found out the same way as you: I tried and it didn't work. I had to disassemble the bytecode to see why it wouldn't work.
