i am using spring boot framework to upload a file, i want to specify the location of a class, then i can upload the file to a dynamic location. Btw, the strange thing is that this was working in intellij, but after I performed a Clean and Build on the Project, then running, it suddenly stopped working main application:
@SpringBootApplication
public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(SmartDustbinServiceApplication.class, args);
}
@Bean
MultipartConfigElement multipartConfigElement() {
MultipartConfigFactory factory = new MultipartConfigFactory();
factory.setLocation(PathKit.getWebRootPath());
return factory.createMultipartConfig();
}
and the class PathKit have a method like this:
private static String detectWebRootPath() {
try {
String path = PathKit.class.getResource("/").toURI().getPath();
return new File(path).getParentFile().getParentFile().getCanonicalPath();
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
}
then I have got the following exceptions when i starting my springboot project;

when running the PathKit.java, PathKit.class.getResource("/"), it always return null. why?
