Spring .properties file: get element as an Array

And incase you a different delimiter other than comma, you can use that as well.

@Value("#{'${my.config.values}'.split(',')}")
private String[] myValues;   // could also be a List<String>

and

in your application properties you could have

my.config.values=value1, value2, value3

If you define your array in properties file like:

base.module.elementToSearch=1,2,3,4,5,6

You can load such array in your Java class like this:

  @Value("${base.module.elementToSearch}")
  private String[] elementToSearch;
