title: Properties file in Eclipse
body: <p>I have an application that uses a properties file that was added by hand at the /project/bin folder (Eclipse project). The application locates the file using:</p>
  
  <pre><code>this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("filename.properties")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now I want to add this file in Eclipse, so it's actually part of the project. In which directory should I create the file and how can I make sure the application will find it?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
