Could you tell me how to include the properties file path in my manifest? my properties file is in the resources folder. I need to include this in the class path of the JAR file, so that if any user wants they can modify the properties file externally and it will reflect in the JAR file

Simple method to load properties file.

Properties props = new Properties();
props.load(new FileInputStream(“config.properties”));
String value = props.getProperty(“prop1″);
System.out.println(value);
System.out.println(props.entrySet());

Hi..
To load the property file in Java I think, it is very easy to do it. It will come in the form of directory when you are downloading this files..
In Java 6 updated version, every properties class have been existed, take help form there to fulfil the requirements….

Asking the class itself for resources seems weird to me. Is there any way to get that by asking the System or by other API not connected to the class you are using it in?
