Policy file in a Jar

Is there way to specify a policy file in a jar?  I've tired different
url for this and can't seem to get it to work.

For example:

jar:file:c:\test.jar!\policy.file

doesn't work

I've received (by email) the following answer to the same question a
while ago :

It is possible to include a policy file within a jar, and the
ClassLoader provides an elegant way to access it. Assuming a client
policy file with the name client.policy in a subdirectory of the jar
called "other" it is possible to obtain a URL to the policy by doing
the following:

ClassLoader cl = getClass().getClassLoader(); URL policyURL =
cl.getResource("other/client.policy");

then set the policy by doing:

System.setProperty("java.security.policy",policyURL.toString());

and finally set the security manager:

System.setSecurityManager(new RMISecurityManager());
