Loading classpath resources and setting file path in Bean

[ColinMc]

I have an integration test that needs to get the file path of a properties file in the project and inject it into a bean. The location of the properties file is /src/test/resources/foo.properties in the project and I need someway in the application context to inject it like this:

<bean id="config" class="com.foo.rest.data.Config">
     <property name="fileLocation" value="file location of internal project resource" />
</bean>

If anyone can help it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Solved it.

<bean id="classLoader" class="java.security.SecureClassLoader" />
<bean id="config" class="com.foo.rest.data.Config">
        <property name="fileLocation" value="#{classLoader.getResource('foo.properties').getPath()}" />
</bean>
