I have a third party jar file that reads a properties file like this: InputStream inputstream = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("file.properties");... it is returning null because it is problably not finding the file.properties in the classpath and I don't know where to put so it can be found...

I already tried to change the config.properties to add in the $ e $, tried to add the properties in most of the directories but still getting the error...

I can't change the way it reads the properties, so I need to know how to make it happens... Thanks !
