Adding properties file entry to the class path entry of the manifest file in java

I have a properties file in the resources folder in my project. I have created a JAR file by excluding this properties file, so that any changes made to the properties file will reflect in my JAR file. Now I want to include this properties file path in the class path entry of my manifest file. How can I do this?

You should put the file in a folder and refer it from the manifest. So, I have the manifest entry of my.jar:

Class-Path: prop/

Then I have a folder "prop" near the my.jar and .properties file in in. Seems it works.
