java - Find and use XML Configuration file with spring -

so have requirement spring filter there urls not need redirected, because introduced responsive design.

i want have xml config this:

<config>    <pages>        <url>/some/responsive/url/1</url>        <url>/some/responsive/url/2</url>        ...    </pages> </config> 

and filter this:

protected void dofilterinternal(httpservletrequest request, httpservletresponse response, filterchain filterchain) throws servletexception, ioexception {         if(!isresponsiveurl(request.getservletpath())) {             response.sendredirect(externalurl); //redirecto 3th party provide responsiveness             return;         }          filterchain.dofilter(request, response); } 

i have resources folder want put xml, can me find way of reading xml , getting url list implement isresponsiveurl?

can spring find config file automatically, , how?

i don't mind if file isn't xml, .properties file!

the goal this, if need add more pages, can update file without restarting app.

thanks :)

you can create util:list , use @resource inject on attribute:

xml this:

<util:list id="pages">    <value>/some/responsive/url/1</value>    <value>/some/responsive/url/2</value> </util:list> 

on java, annotate attribute:

@resource(name="pages") private list<string> pages; 

obs: don't forget include spring-util.xsd bean definitions.

you can take more information on spring doc site.

i hope i´ve helped
