Simple BeanFactory

[strbuf]

I tried testing Spring BeanFactory like this:

import org.springframework.core.io.*;

public class Foo {
	ClassPathResource res=new ClassPathResource("beans.xml");
	
	FooBean fooBean;
	
	System.out.println(fooBean.getName());
	
}

beans.xml

<beans>
  
  <bean id="fooBean" class="FooBean">
    <property name="name"><value>Joshua</value></property>
  </bean>

</beans>

Both files are located on the same directory. But nothing came out. I'm using eclipse for the IDE. What do I need to do in order to test the BeanFactory since the manual isn't comprehensive enough.

Thnx

Change:

FooBean fooBean;

to:

FooBean fooBean = res.getBean("fooBean");
