Unable to get the spring bean.

Hi, im using Spring 3.0.6.Release and Apache CXF 2.5.1 in my application, and my application context is loaded in the web.xml. After I my application container jetty is started up, all the beans are initialized. But when I create a LoggingDao Objec the JdbcTemplate is not set. Did I forget something? Have anyone a idea why dependency injection not work?

Create a LoggingDao Object.

Code:

---

private LoggingDao loggingDao = new LoggingDao();

---

web.xml

HTML Code:

---

        <listener>
                <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
        </listener>

        <context-param>
                <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
                <param-value>classpath:application-context.xml</param-value>
        </context-param>

---

application-context.xml

Code:

---

        <bean id="org.h2.tools.Server" class="org.h2.tools.Server"
                factory-method="createTcpServer" init-method="start" destroy-method="stop">
                <constructor-arg value="-tcp,-tcpAllowOthers,-tcpPort,8043" />
        </bean>

        <bean id="org.h2.tools.Server-WebServer" class="org.h2.tools.Server"
                factory-method="createWebServer" init-method="start">
                <constructor-arg value="-web,-webAllowOthers,-webPort,8082" />
        </bean>

        <bean id="H2DatabaseJDBCDriver" class="org.h2.Driver" scope="singleton"
                init-method="load" depends-on="org.h2.tools.Server" />

        <bean id="dataSource"
                class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource"
                depends-on="org.h2.tools.Server">
                <property name="driverClassName" value="org.h2.Driver" />
                <property name="url" value="jdbc:h2:tcp://localhost:8043/~/xserver" />
                <!-- ;TRACE_LEVEL_FILE=3;TRACE_LEVEL_SYSTEM_OUT=3 -->
                <property name="username" value="sa" />
                <property name="password" value="" />
        </bean>

        <bean id="loggingDao" class="com.foo.LoggingDao">
                <property name="jdbcTemplate" ref="jdbcTemplate" />
        </bean>

        <bean id="jdbcTemplate" class="org.springframework.jdbc.core.JdbcTemplate ">
                <property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
        </bean>

LoggingDao

Code:

---

package com.foo;

public class LoggingDao {

        private JdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate;

        public LoggingDao() {}

        public void setJdbcTemplate(JdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate) {
                this.jdbcTemplate = jdbcTemplate;
                if(jdbcTemplate!=null) {
                        System.out.println("JDBC Template is not null");
                }
        }

---

private LoggingDao loggingDao = new LoggingDao();

I don't think Spring container will inject if you do this. You have to either annotate it with @Autowired(for this you have to enable annotation in your applicationContext.xml).

Else, you have first get the spring context and then get the DAO bean from it.

Hope this helps.
