I use
this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(...
rather than using the system classloader and it works in both Eclipse and
Maven.

Subject: Referencing .properties files in the CLASSPATH in test
Hi guys,
I have some unit tests that do things like this:
InputStream stream =
ClassLoader.getSystemResourceAsStream("TestDBSetup.properties");
assertNotNull("Could not load TestDBSetup.properties from classpath",
stream);
Properties dbProperties = new Properties();
dbProperties.load(stream);
TestDBSetup.properties lives in src/main/test/resources.
In Eclipse, this works fine. However, when I execute mvn test, it doesn't
work. TestDBSetup.properties is no copied to target/test-classes (Eclipse
does it, though). Even if I put it there manually, the ClassLoader can't
find it when I run 'mvn test', presumably because it's not on the
CLASSPATH?
In a similar vein, I have some xml files in src/main/test/java/com/foo/bar
that need to be in the CLASSPATH under target/test-classes/com/foo/bar.
My POM is like so:
<?xml version="1.0"?><project>
<parent>
<artifactId>MyParentProject</artifactId>
<groupId>com.foo.bar</groupId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</parent>
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>com.foo.bar</groupId>
<artifactId>MyDatabasePackage</artifactId>
