How to solve the problem with returning the value of resource.getPath() from resources?

Question

Java

There is a file in Resources connection.yaml:

YamlReader reader = null;
        try {
            URL resource = Client.class.getClassLoader().getResource("connection.yaml");
            System.out.println("resource.toString() = " + resource.toString());
            System.out.println("resource.getFile() = " + resource.getPath());
            reader = new YamlReader(new FileReader(new File(resource.toURI())));
        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

as a result

resource.toString() = file:/C:/Servers/Repository/Templates/out/production/resources/connection.yaml
resource.getFile() = /C:/Servers/Repository/Templates/out/production/resources/connection.yaml

how to get rid of "/"?

Answer 1

YamlReader yamlReader = null;

try (InputStream resourceAsStream = DrugDealerValidator.class.getResourceAsStream("connection.yaml");
  Reader reader = new InputStreamReader(resourceAsStream);
        YamlReader yamlReader = new YamlReader(reader)) {


      
// работаем с yamlReader

    }catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
