Answer 1

From Java API:

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/ClassLoader.html#getSystemResource(java.lang.String)

Find a resource of the specified name from the search path used to load classes. This method locates the resource through the system class loader

So the syntax will for instance be: ClassLoader.getSystemResource("test.xml").toString();

Works like a charm!
