How to include config xml file in JBOSS EAP-6.4.0 classpath during war deployment?

Question

I currently have a log4j2.xml file that is module specific stored at /opt/EAP-6.4.0/standalone/configuration/log4j2.xml. I want to include that file in the classpath of the war module when the service is being deployed. I tried hard-coding the classpath in the MANIFEST.mf file but that isnt working. The idea is to separate out the configuration files while still including it into the classpath of the deployed wars. Thank you.
