The technique is simple: place file, e.g. x.prop, in top-level of a jar
file on the classpath. Then in any class do
URL xProp = getClass().getResource("/x.prop");
Or InputStream xPropInput = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/x.prop");
Alternatively, you can place the file at the same level as the class
that's going to use it and call
URL xProp = getClass().getResource(getClass().getPackage().getName() +
".x.prop") or the InputStream equivalent. Note no leading slash here.
More documentation is at the ClassLoader#getResource javadoc. This is a
good technique for anyone to know.
