/**
 * 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:
 * 
 * 
1=help-config.xml
 * 
2=help-web-config.xml
 * 
3=home-config.xml
 * 
...
 * 

 * 
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.
