Spring resource loading using * (classpath*: prefix)

Question

In Spring, bean initialization using XML supports resource loading using the classpath*: prefix (ant style)

<bean id="mapper" class="org.Class"
    scope="singleton">
    <property name="mappingFiles" value="classpath*:/mappings/*Mapping.xml" />
</bean> 

How do I achieve the same result when using @Bean annotation?

Answer 1

In any spring bean

@Value("classpath:myClasspathLocation") 
private Resource res;
