/**
* Standalone XML application context, taking the context definition files
* from the file system or from URLs, interpreting plain paths as relative
* file system locations (e.g. "mydir/myfile.txt"). Useful for test harnesses
* as well as for standalone environments.
*
* <p><b>NOTE:</b> Plain paths will always be interpreted as relative
* to the current VM working directory, even if they start with a slash.
* (This is consistent with the semantics in a Servlet container.)
* <b>Use an explicit "file:" prefix to enforce an absolute file path.</b>
*
* <p>The config location defaults can be overridden via {@link #getConfigLocations},
* Config locations can either denote concrete files like "/myfiles/context.xml"
* or Ant-style patterns like "/myfiles/*-context.xml" (see the
* {@link org.springframework.util.AntPathMatcher} javadoc for pattern details).
*
* <p>Note: In case of multiple config locations, later bean definitions will
* override ones defined in earlier loaded files. This can be leveraged to
* deliberately override certain bean definitions via an extra XML file.
*
* <p><b>This is a simple, one-stop shop convenience ApplicationContext.
* Consider using the {@link GenericApplicationContext} class in combination
* with an {@link org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.XmlBeanDefinitionReader}
* for more flexible context setup.</b>
