SaxBuilder error: root element missing

SaxBuilder error: root element missing

Hi all,

Here is my problem:

When I try to parse an xml document using the
SaxBuilder.build(|java.io.File file) method, there is no problem.

When I put the same file inside a jar file and try to parse it using
|the SaxBuilder.build(|java.net.URL url)|, I got an error saying the
root element is missing in the document (full message at the end).

Code sample (say the file name is tpc.xml) :
-- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- -----
//- this works
SaxBuilder sb = new SaxBuilder();
Document doc = sb.build("c:/tpc.xml");

//- this doesn't work
SaxBuilder sb = new SaxBuilder();
Document doc = sb.build(getClass().getResource("/ressources/tpc.xml"));

Does anyone have any idea?

Thanks,
Emmanuel
