This actually ended up being fairly simple. To get a Java-config bean definition into the xml-config, simply define the Java-config class as a bean within the XML-config. There are no extra jars necessary. @Configuration public class SomeJavaConfig { @bean … [bean definition] } inside the XML-config, you define this class as a bean. <!– needed … Read more
Model is an interface while ModelMap is a class. ModelAndView is just a container for both a ModelMap and a view object. It allows a controller to return both as a single value.
GA = General availability (a release); should be very stable and feature complete RC = Release candidate; probably feature complete and should be pretty stable – problems should be relatively rare and minor, but worth reporting to try to get them fixed for release. M = Milestone build – probably not feature complete; should be … Read more
I think the issue is that Spring doesn’t know how to deserialize the date your browser client sends when submitting the following input field in <tr name=”tstest”> <td>Date Of Birth</td> <td><form:input path=”dateOfBirth” name=”timestamp” value=””/> <a href=”https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20616319/javascript:show_calendar(“document.tstest.timestamp’, document.tstest.timestamp.value);”><img src=”../images/cal.gif” width=”16″ height=”16″ border=”0″ alt=”Click Here to Pick up the timestamp”></a> </td> </tr> Spring doesn’t know how to … Read more
The common way to have different beans in the application context is using profiles. You can read about profiles in the following spring source posts: http://blog.springsource.org/2011/02/14/spring-3-1-m1-introducing-profile http://blog.springsource.org/2011/06/21/spring-3-1-m2-testing-with-configuration-classes-and-profiles/ About your first question, you can declare beans at runtime via BeanDefinitionRegistry.registerBeanDefinition() method, for example: BeanDefinitionBuilder builder = BeanDefinitionBuilder.rootBeanDefinition(SomeClass.class); builder.addPropertyReference(“propertyName”, “someBean”); // add dependency to other bean builder.addPropertyValue(“propertyName”, … Read more
Basically Spring 3.x versions supports up to Java-7 only. If you want to migrate to Java-8 you should use Spring 4.x version. However some spring release notes says that the Spring Framework 3.2.x will support deployment on JDK 8 runtimes for applications compiled against JDK 7 (with -target 1.7) or earlier. Note that it won’t … Read more
You can use this way to use spring bean in non-spring bean class import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext; import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextAware; import org.springframework.stereotype.Component; @Component public class ApplicationContextUtils implements ApplicationContextAware { private static ApplicationContext ctx; @Override public void setApplicationContext(ApplicationContext appContext) { ctx = appContext; } public static ApplicationContext getApplicationContext() { return ctx; } } now you can get the applicationcontext … Read more
The message is actually pretty clear: something creates a ThreadLocal with value of type org.apache.axis.MessageContext – this is a great hint. It most likely means that Apache Axis framework forgot/failed to cleanup after itself. The same problem occurred for instance in Logback. You shouldn’t bother much, but reporting a bug to Axis team might be … Read more
The difference between @Inject vs. @Autowire vs. @Resource? @Autowired: spring propriety annotation (as opposed to @Inject and @Resource) that inject a resource by-type, i.e. by the class of by the interface of the annotated field or contractor. In case we have few implementation of an interface or a subclass we can narrow down the selection … Read more
Spring helps in the creation of loosely coupled applications because of Dependency Injection. In Spring, objects define their associations (dependencies) and do not worry about how they will get those dependencies. It is the responsibility of Spring to provide the required dependencies for creating objects. For example: Suppose we have an object Employee and it … Read more
