Class FileSystemResourceLoader

java.lang.Object
  org.springframework.core.io.DefaultResourceLoader
      org.springframework.core.io.FileSystemResourceLoader

All Implemented Interfaces:

ResourceLoader

public class FileSystemResourceLoader
extends DefaultResourceLoader

ResourceLoader implementation that resolves plain paths as file system resources rather than as class path resources (the latter is DefaultResourceLoader's default strategy).

NOTE: Plain paths will always be interpreted as relative to the current VM working directory, even if they start with a slash. (This is consistent with the semantics in a Servlet container.) Use an explicit "file:" prefix to enforce an absolute file path.

FileSystemXmlApplicationContext is a full-fledged ApplicationContext implementation that provides the same resource path resolution strategy.

Since:

1.1.3
