Using ClassResource to manage application properties

General

Hi,

I was trying to use the ClassResources to load a configuration file for my application. I’ve placed the app.config.xml file in the same package as my application main. Here is a section of Scala code:


    application = app
    resource = new ClassResource("app.config.xml",application)
    debug("resource mimeType = {}",resource.getMIMEType)
    debug("resource bufferSize = {}", resource.getBufferSize)
    debug("resource cacheTime = {}",resource.getCacheTime)
    debug("resource fileName = {}", resource.getFilename)
    
    if (resource.getStream != null) {
      // get the java InputStream
      val is = resource.getStream.getStream
      if (is != null) {
        is.reset
        if (Source.fromInputStream(is).nonEmpty) {
          debug("resource stream = {}", Source.fromInputStream(is).mkString)
        } else {
          debug("stream is empty")
        }
      } else {
        debug("Input stream was null")
      }
    } else {
      debug("Download stream was null")
    }

When I deploy to the Apache server and the code executes, I get the following debug output:


01:20:07.221 [http-8084-3]
 DEBUG c.s.app.Configuration$ - resource mimeType = text/xml
01:20:07.226 [http-8084-3]
 DEBUG c.s.app.Configuration$ - resource bufferSize = 0
01:20:07.228 [http-8084-3]
 DEBUG c.s.app.Configuration$ - resource cacheTime = 86400000
01:20:07.228 [http-8084-3]
 DEBUG c.s.app.Configuration$ - resource fileName = app.config.xml
01:20:07.230 [http-8084-3]
 DEBUG c.s.app.Configuration$ - Input stream was null

So, it seems like the file is not being found. Can someone help me understand what’s going wrong?

Thanks,
John
