By default Spring Boot will serve static content from a directory called /static (or /public or /resources or /META-INF/resources) in the classpath.
A Classpath scanning basically means, detecting the classes that need to be managed by the Spring under a specified package. You need to make use of the spring @ComponentScan annotation with the @Configuration for classpath scanning.
Map<String, Object> env = new HashMap<>(); try (FileSystem fs = FileSystems. newFileSystem(uri, env)) { Path path = fs. getPath("/path/myResource"); try (Stream<String> lines = Files. lines(path)) { .... } }
Does
classpath:
search for resource relative to the document in which it is specified(in case of web applications)?
No, classpath:
is always relative to the classpath root. If you put a /
at the start of the path, it is silently removed.
Is it more fast to search if i give direct location of resource instead e.g.
classpath:/WEB-INF/classes/myfolder/myfile.txt
No, that won't work at all. The classpath root contains /WEB-INF/classes
, so the path should be relative to that.
Don't confuse classpath:
paths with file paths, they have no relation to each other.
Take a look at http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/3.0.x/spring-framework-reference/html/resources.html#resources-classpath-wildcards
This special prefix specifies that all classpath resources that match the given name must be obtained (internally, this essentially happens via a ClassLoader.getResources(...) call), and then merged to form the final application context definition.
So classpath:
starts at the root of your classpath.
