Retrieves a file relative to the application root path.
Retrieves a file relative to the application root path. This method returns an Option[File], using None if the file was not found.

val myConf = application.getExistingFile("conf/myConf.yml")
the relative path of the file to fetch
an existing file

Scans the application classloader to retrieve all types annotated with a specific annotation.
Scans the application classloader to retrieve all types annotated with a specific annotation.
This method is useful for some plugins, for example the EBean plugin will automatically detect all types
annotated with @javax.persistance.Entity, using:
val entities = application.getTypesAnnotatedWith("models", classOf[javax.persistance.Entity])
Note that it is better to specify a very specific package to avoid expensive searches.

Plugin classes must extend play.api.Plugin and are automatically discovered by searching for all play.plugins files in the classpath.
A play.plugins file contains a list of plugin classes to be loaded, and sorted by priority:
100:play.api.i18n.MessagesPlugin 200:play.api.db.DBPlugin 250:play.api.cache.BasicCachePlugin 300:play.db.ebean.EbeanPlugin 400:play.db.jpa.JPAPlugin 500:play.api.db.evolutions.EvolutionsPlugin 1000:play.api.libs.akka.AkkaPlugin 10000:play.api.GlobalPlugin
