Where to put spring configuration files when using maven

Question

I\'m trying to solve my configuration-files-problem.

I have Spring MVC application with this structure (my current structure)

src/main/java/ .................         


        

Answer 1

A common pattern (for example used by Spring Roo applications) is to put the configuration files under src\main\resources\META-INF\spring\

Then you can load them via the same expression classpath:META-INF\spring\application-context.xml in tests as well as in your application.
