One-way PropertyEditor which can convert from a text String to a java.io.Reader, interpreting the given String as a Spring resource location (e.g. a URL String). 
Supports Spring-style URL notation: any fully qualified standard URL
("file:", "http:", etc.) and Spring's special "classpath:" pseudo-URL.
Note that such readers usually do not get closed by Spring itself!
