You can get the resources in your classpath (even when sealed in the JAR) by using the ClassLoader#getResource() and ClassLoader#getResourceAsStream() methods.

For example:

Properties values = new Properties();
values.load(ThisClass.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("myproject.properties"));
// umm, don't forget to close the stream, this code is just an example usage

Note that storing the username and password to any database in a program is considered a heavy security risk.
