Re: JDOM and Android

You'll need to put the data in assets

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4820816/how-to-get-uri-from-an-asset-file

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4789325/android-path-to-asset-txt-file

and use getResources().getAssets().open()

Or you could put the data in res/raw and use
getResources().openRawResource()

.. but res/raw does not support a nested file structure.

Or maybe you could do something crazy with a custom class loader:
