No se encontró el recurso Classpath cuando se ejecuta como jar

Al tener este problema tanto en Spring Boot 1.1.5 como 1.1.6, estoy cargando un recurso de classpath usando una anotación @Value, que funciona bien cuando ejecuto la aplicación desde STS (3.6.0, Windows). Sin embargo, cuando ejecuto un paquete mvn y luego intento ejecutar el jar, obtengo excepciones FileNotFound.

El recurso, message.txt, está en src/main/resources. Inspeccioné el archivo jar y verifiqué que contiene el archivo "message.txt" en el nivel superior (el mismo nivel que application.properties).

Aquí está la aplicación:

@Configuration
@ComponentScan
@EnableAutoConfiguration
public class Application implements CommandLineRunner {

    private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(Application.class);

    @Value("${message.file}")
    private Resource messageResource;

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
    }

    @Override
    public void run(String... arg0) throws Exception {
        // both of these work when running as Spring boot app from STS, but
        // fail after mvn package, and then running as java -jar
        testResource(new ClassPathResource("message.txt"));
        testResource(this.messageResource);
    }

    private void testResource(Resource resource) {
        try {
            resource.getFile();
            logger.debug("Found the resource " + resource.getFilename());
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            logger.error(ex.toString());
        }
    }
}

La excepción:

Si está utilizando Spring Framework, leer ClassPathResourceen a Stringes bastante simple usando Spring FrameworkFileCopyUtils :

String data = "";
ClassPathResource cpr = new ClassPathResource("static/file.txt");
try {
    byte[] bdata = FileCopyUtils.copyToByteArray(cpr.getInputStream());
    data = new String(bdata, StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
} catch (IOException e) {
    LOG.warn("IOException", e);
}
