I was packaging my web service API as a Jar file.  The API has to access a WSDL xml file.

The file structure of the Jar looks like this:

If the class is also in the same jar file, you can simply read the file like this:

(in URL format)
final URL url =  this.getClass().getResource(”/webservice.asmx.xml”);

(in InputStream format)
final InputStream is = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream(”/webservice.asmx.xml”);
