I have a static util class that does some string manipulation on a bit sensitive data. Prior to use of this class I need to initialize certain static variables with values, such as usernames/password, that I prefer to store in a .properties file.

I am not very familiar with how loading of .properties file work in Java, especially outside of *Spring DI *container. Anyone can give me a hand/insight on how this can be done?

Thank you!

Addition: .properties file precise location is unknown, but it will be on the classpath. Sorta like classpath:/my/folder/name/myproperties.propeties

java properties
