Hello Saurabh,
I’m trying to understand more about your requirement.

Please answer following questions

  1. Why you are trying to pass changelog files at runtime? Let me explain more about the question. Assume following scenario. You are building your application continuously. For example, following are the build versions of your jar
Sl No Build Version
1 1.8-150
2 1.8-151
3 1.8-152
.
.
50 1.9-4
51 1.9-5

Also assume presently you are doing 1.9.6 related development. During that time, version 1.8-152 delivered to a customer, but some migration error came in the customer side.

If you keep your changelog files in jar’s code repository itself, and deliver changelog files inside jar file, then it will be easier to debug situations similar to above. Also if you keep changelog files outside jar, then which changelog files applicable to each build, tracking this will be difficult.

May be you are facing some difficulties while keeping changelog files inside the jar. If you explain more about that, I may be able to give a solution.
