Luca Merolla [http://community.jboss.org/people/osnetwork] created the discussion "@Service loading resource file fails" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/547333#547333 -------------------------------------------------------------- Hi there, I was trying to implement a cache with Infinispan and the annotation @Service for making it Singleton, so in the constructor I have put something like this: ... manager = new DefaultCacheManager("mycache.xml");  cache = manager.getCache("testCache");  ... It fails on the startup of the application, it can't find the mycache.xml files. I have tried also with different paths like resources/mycache.xml and /mycache.xml The fact is that *properties files are loaded correctly with resources/file.properties but those are loaded after the application has been deployed. I suppose the problem is because the @Service is trying to load the files from different locations or in a different way. or the resources are not available until the application is deployed. Does anybody of you have experienced this problem before?
