ResourceNotFoundException error when accessing image in Android Titanium module

I'm developing an Android Module for a Titanium app and I have to generate a Notification. Android SDK forces me to do a setSmallIcon() call to include a png asset as icon for the notification. I've put icon_notification.png asset in /platform/android/res/drawable folder of my module and (tryed to) got it in the code calling

TiRHelper.getResource("drawable.icon_notification")

but when I build module calling ant, the following error is raised:

[javac] Note: [KrollBindingGen] Running Kroll binding generator.
[javac] Note: [KrollBindingGen] No binding data found, creating new data file: org.appcelerator.titanium.bindings/connecthings.json

seems that raising a ResourceNotFoundException exception, builder doesn't find the assset

Have I placed the file in the wrong place?

The platform folder also has to sub-folder of android folder.The full directory is "android/platform/android/res/drawable/". You can also check if the resources are created in the build folder.

Error posted is trowed during build step of the module. In this step I think that resources are not already put in place, so, wrapping the TiRHelper method in a try...catch statement as written in the wiki suggested by @Saeed Sharman resolve the problem.

So, the working version is simply:

try {
  TiRHelper.getResource("drawable.icon_notification");
catch (ResourceNotFoundException e) {
  ...
}
