Load Properties File with ClassLoader

For those who want to load a Properties file located in the classpath (could be the classpath of your server: Far from your artifact), this is how a Properties Files is loaded "like a Sir!"

try { InputStream inputStream = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(propertiesFile); properties.load(inputStream); inputStream.close(); } catch (Exception ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); }
Simple! Instead of using the traditional way

getClass().getResourceAsStream(propertiesFile);

By doing it in that way, we make sure the ClassLoader will look further into the classpath other than just look in the near surroundings :P
