According to the documentation, relative paths are resolved using the
classpath and/or the datapath.  I usually put my resource files in a
directory called "resources" which I add to the classpath.

Here's the relevant paragraph of the documentation (section 2.4.1.11):

file:com/apache.d.txt is a relative path; relative paths for resources are
resolved using the
classpath and/or the datapath. For the file protocol, URLs starting with
file:/ or file:/// are absolute.
