Hi,

I am sending this message again, as the last thread went a little too far.

I have developed a Java Application that runs lisp code at the back end, and I use ABCL for that.

Before using the lisp commands, I load a few .lisp files so that I can call the functions defined in those files.

Everything works fine as long as I run the application from Netbeans.

When I run the application from the jar file, it throws 'File not found error'.

as the lisp files are not a part of file system inside the project jar.

I tried to follow the suggestions given by Mark

(load “jar:file:/absolute/path/to/file.jar!/path/within/jar/setup.lisp”)

It shows the same File not found error. Am i missing something here?

As suggested by Ralph to use (load-system-file "path/to/resource.lisp"), I tried to use that, but I was unable to access sys package, please let me know how to do this.

I find the help documentation and tutorials very confusing, and difficult to understand.

Any hints will be appreciated.

Thanking in anticipation.

Regards,

Hamda
