Autowire by type problem, but I'm not using autowiring.

[captrespect]

Hello,

I'm getting an error in my unit test setup. It's telling me:

org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'test.com.cirqular.cortrac.scheduledmail.HibernateCortracNewsEmailTests' defined in null: Unsatisfied dependency expressed through bean property 'cortracNewsDao': There are 2 beans of type [interface com.cirqular.cortrac.scheduledmail.CortracNewsDao] for autowire by type. There should have been 1 to be able to autowire property 'cortracNewsDao' of bean 'test.com.cirqular.cortrac.scheduledmail.HibernateCortracNewsEmailTests'.
	at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.autowireByType(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:800)
	at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.populateBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:720)
	at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.autowireBeanProperties(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:188)
	at .....

The problem is that I'm not using autowiring.

here is my testing config:

<bean id="testCortracNewsDao" class="test.com.cirqular.cortrac.scheduledmail.HibernateCortracNewsEmailTests">
		<property name="cortracNewsDao" ref="txCortracNewsDao"/>			
	</bean>

and the relavent other code:

<bean id="txCortracNewsDao" parent="txProxyTemplate">
		<property name="target">
			<bean id="cortracNewsDao" class="com.cirqular.cortrac.scheduledmail.CortracNewsDaoHibernate">
				<property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory"/>		
				<property name="xslTransformUtil" ref="emailDaileyXsl"/>
				<property name="subject" value="CorTrac News"/>
				<property name="to">
					<list>
						<value>jroberts@cirqular.com</value>
					</list>
				</property>
				<property name="from" value="$&#123;mail.fromAddress&#125;"/>
				<property name="buildingGroupId" value="3"/>
				<property name="movementRangeHours" value="24"/>
				<property name="hasAccessToDa" value="true"/>
				<property name="levelIntervalDays" value="7"/>
				<property name="points" value="75"/>
				<property name="incidentRangeHours" value="24"/>
				<property name="scheduleRangeHours" value="24"/>
				<property name="maxMinutesLate" value="15"/>
			</bean>	      
	    </property>
	</bean>
			
	<!-- same as cortracNewsDao, but only has access to work release -->
	<bean id="txCortracNewsWrDao" parent="txProxyTemplate">
		<property name="target">			
			<bean id="cortracNewsWrDao" class="com.cirqular.cortrac.scheduledmail.CortracNewsDaoHibernate">
				<property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory"/>		
				<property name="xslTransformUtil" ref="emailDaileyXsl"/>
				<property name="subject" value="CorTrac News"/>
				<property name="to">
					<list>
						<value>jroberts@cirqular.com</value>
					</list>
				</property>
				<property name="from" value="$&#123;mail.fromAddress&#125;"/>
				<property name="buildingGroupId" value="3"/>
				<property name="movementRangeHours" value="24"/>
				<property name="hasAccessToDa" value="false"/>
				<property name="levelIntervalDays" value="7"/>
				<property name="points" value="75"/>
				<property name="incidentRangeHours" value="24"/>
				<property name="scheduleRangeHours" value="24"/>
				<property name="maxMinutesLate" value="15"/>
			</bean>
		</property>
	</bean>

Now I do in fact have two beans of Type: CortracNewsDao (defined above)
But since am specifying ref="txCortracNewsDao", why does that matter?

argh

I was able to get it working, by changing my interfaces around. I was extending another interface, once I removed that so it was an interface that only extended one interface the problem went away...
