util:constant and map *values*?

[tunaranch]

This little snippet:

  <bean> 
    <property name="...">
      <map>
        <entry>
          <key
            <util:constant static-field="some.class.CONSTANT" />
          </key>
          <value><util:constant static-field="some.class.OTHER_CONSTANT" /></value>
        </entry>
      </map>
    </property>
  </bean>

Seems to throw the error:

Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.d: Invalid content was found starting with element 'util:constant'. No child element is expected at this point.
	at org.apache.xerces.util.ErrorHandlerWrapper.createSAXParseException(Unknown Source)

Does this mean that constants can't be used as map values?

No it doesn't mean that. Just keep <value> tag out. Like that:

<entry>
  <key
    <util:constant static-field="some.class.CONSTANT" />
  </key>
  <util:constant static-field="some.class.OTHER_CONSTANT" />
</entry>
