spring context - how to load properties file specified as system property in a batch file

I have a batch file which will set a system property with config.properties and execute a jar file. Spring context file inside the jar needs to load this property file to set the jdbc connection settings related bean in the context file. But I get file not found error as shown below. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanInitializationException: Could not load pr
operties; nested exception is java.io.FileNotFoundException: \${config.propertie
s.name} (The system cannot find the file specified)

batch file content:

set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dconfig.properties.name=../config.properties
java -classpath .;../lib/xyz.jar ax.bx.cx.ABCClass

Spring context file within the jar:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:util="http://www.springframework.org/schema/util"
    xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop"
    xsi:schemaLocation="
http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop/spring-aop-3.0.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx/spring-tx-2.5.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-2.5.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/util http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-2.5.xsd">

<context:property-placeholder开发者_如何学C location="classpath:${config.properties.name}"/>

<!-- other beans declared below -->

</beans>

<bean id="propertyPlaceholderConfigurer" class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
    <property name="systemPropertiesModeName">
        <value>SYSTEM_PROPERTIES_MODE_FALLBACK</value>
    </property>
</bean>


<context:property-placeholder location="file:${config.properties.name}"/>

Now since you are using context schema, modify your beans tag as follows -

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
        xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:util="http://www.springframework.org/schema/util"
        xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop"
        xsi:schemaLocation="
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop/spring-aop-3.0.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx/spring-tx-2.5.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-2.5.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/util http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-2.5.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-2.5.xsd">
