/**
 * <p>Loads the ApplicationContext from xml files listed in a property file.
 * The xml files referenced in the properties should be in the classpath.
 * The format of the property file should be as follows:</p>
 * <p/>
 * <br>1=help-config.xml
 * <br>2=help-web-config.xml
 * <br>3=home-config.xml
 * <br>...
 * <p/>
 * <p>The numbering controls the loading order of the files.  This
 * allows for overriding of beans configured in earlier xml definition files.
 * Without the numbering we can not gaurantee what order the files will load. </p>
