Hi,
I asked this question in the
EJB and J2EE forum but couldn't get an appropriate answer. This forum is more EJB spec oriented, so I try again.
If I deploy .properties files in the root of my .ear file. My classes can find them via getResource() or getResourceAsStream() as they where on the class path (at least on WebSphere).
But I don't know if this is according to the EJB / J2EE spec. I couldn't find a statement if files in the root of the .ear are automatically included in the classpath and available to the ejb and web modules within the enterprise project.
