Filesystem access from an EJB is not recommended according to the
specification. But - if you have packaged the config.xml in a jar, and
the jar is on the classpath, use the following construct:
InputStream in =
Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("config.xml");
then read from the InputStream.
