So I'm trying to get a sketch for android load and then draw an image.
But when I run on my device, this happens:
1. FATAL EXCEPTION: Animation Thread
2. java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: File resources/cannon.png contains a path separator
3. at android.app.ContextImpl.makeFilename(ContextImpl.java:1660)
4. at android.app.ContextImpl.getFileStreamPath(ContextImpl.java:812)
5. at android.content.ContextWrapper.getFileStreamPath(ContextWrapper.java:175)
6. at processing.core.PApplet.sketchPath(Unknown Source)
7. at processing.core.PApplet.createInputRaw(Unknown Source)
8. at processing.core.PApplet.createInput(Unknown Source)
9. at processing.core.PApplet.loadImage(Unknown Source)
10. at processing.test.imagetest.ImageTest.setup(ImageTest.java:30)
11. at processing.core.PApplet.handleDraw(Unknown Source)
12. at processing.core.PGraphicsAndroid2D.requestDraw(PGraphicsAndroid2D.java:169)
13. at processing.core.PApplet.run(Unknown Source)
14. at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:856)
And my code looks like this:
1. PImage img;
3. void setup ()
4. {
5. size(200, 200);
6. img = loadImage("resources/cannon.png");
7. }
9. void draw ()
10. {
11. image(img, 0, 0, width, height);
12. }
My file structure has a folder in the sketch's directory called "resources" with a file called "cannon.png" inside.
When I tried moving "cannon.png" right next to the (only) .pde file and changing line 6 to be:

img = loadImage("cannon.png");

I get a null pointer exception saying that "cannon.png" cannot be found.

What is going on and how can I get around this?
