62 -A. When using white spaces in the project, framework path or WAR deployment etc on Windows, the white space will turn into "%20" in the path.  This will cause NSBundle.mainBundle returns null when it unable to load any bundles.  For example:

66 -Example path will not work:
67 -C:\Documents and Settings
68 - 
69 -will turn into this wrong path:
70 -C:\Documents%20and%20Settings
71 - 
72 -Therefore, this path will work:
73 -C:\DocumentsAndSettings

80 -Keep your files in path without white space seemed to be the first rule of thumb when development on Windows.  Default location "C:ocuments and Setting" should not be used.
