I am using SpringBootApplication
I have used org.springframework.core.io.ClassPathResource
for getting file from the project classpath like shown below
File file = new ClassPathResource("File1").getFile();
My files are in the resources folder
This is working fine in the Spring STS. I get IO Exception when I export my project as WAR and deploy it in the TOMCAT container (Project folder structure changes when it is exported to WAR).
What is the work around for this issue?
