loading lisp files from inside the java jar

[Hamda Binte Ajmal]

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
