I am getting

java.lang.NullPointerException at org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.support.Hiberna teDaoSupport.getSession(HibernateDaoSupport.java:1 41)

and I guess I know the problem.

I am new to Springs and I guess I am also having same issue.

What am I doing :

BeanAAAImpl {

fun() {
new BeanBBBImpl(). bar() ;
}

}

So actually from one bean, I am trying to create instance of other bean and getting same exception. Any idea how could I avaoid this exception. There is another thread http://forum.springframework.org/sho...t=32921&page=2 discussing the same issue but I can't understand how can I change my context.xml to create bean itself. Please help

Okay, I was able to resolve the issue.

I use this and added emailtemplate definition in adminDao

<bean id="adminDao" class="com.xx.cp.authn.AdminDaoImpl">
<property name="emailTemplateDao" ref="emailTemplateDao"/>
<property name="sessionFactory">
<ref bean="sessionFactory"/>
</property>
</bean>

hehe, ok.

By the way, if you use the Code-Tag (just press #), it makes source code looking much better...

I don't understand how adding that configuration would get rid of the exception. If you are creating them using the new operator you are still going to have problems. BTW, I'm with you on the [code] [ /code] tags .

[monsee]

Oh, I meant that first I get rid of that new operator and then used the above code to get the bean.

It made me feel worst that I simply do not know basics on springs so I bought(actually free book, not bought) a book and read the whole chapter on bean creation. I now know how does it work :-).

Ok, that makes much more sense . Out of interest, which book did you go for?

[monsee]

The tutorial given on Springs website v2.0.5. I found it very good

Ok I misunderstood, I thought you meant you'd got an actual book.
