No - this should work in JDK 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3.  Are you sure the file 
exists?  Spelled correctly?  It may be that the problem is in something 
that you are not telling us about.  The best way to deal with problems 
like this is to create a minimal example that demonstrates the problem, 
and post the example.  Then others can try running it, and perhaps detect 
the problem.

Are you saying that the file does not get copied to the output path?  If 
so, that would explain the problem above.
