XML or Properties file on classpath

[chilired]

If I have a properties file or an xml file and I am locating it as a resource within my java code it will look for the file on the CLASSPATH. How do you setup a JBuilder project so that it includes a folder onto the CLASSPATH? I tried creating a JBuilder library that points to the directory containing the file but when I run my Junit test, the classpath that is spit out at the beginning of the run does not show the directory and it does not find my resource.

I am sure this is a simple answer but I am stumped.

Thanks,
