Populate h:selectOneMenu on page load with spring

[ranaijazahmad]

Hi,

I am using Spring + JPA + JSF + RichFaces integration with oracle as database server.

In my jsf page i have the following code:

<h:selectOneMenu id="serviceId" value="#callListBean.callListVO.selectedPatient}">        
<f:selectItems value="#{callListBean.callListVO.patientList}"  />
</h:selectOneMenu>

I have to populate it when this page gets loaded. Following is my Java Code:

class SomeClass()
{
  // spring will inject this service
  private SomeSpringInjectedService  service;
  private SomePOJO  pojo;
  private List  patientList

 // constructor
  public SomeClass()
{
   patientList = service.getResult();

}
 public String populate()
{
   

}


}

but when the above code executed, it gives the NullPointerException. I know the reason that when constructor executes, 'service' is null as spring will inject this after the constructor's execution.

Please help me how to populate my dropdown menu on page load.

thanks

I also tried the following in the constructor

service = (SomeSpringInjectedService)ApplicationContext.getB ean("service ")

but it is also giving null pointer exception. ApplicationContext is a ApplicationContext Context Aware class

This is really strange cause I have exactly the same situation and my code works fine.

Thanks Josué,

It is resolved. Actually I didn't registered the ApplicationContext Context Aware class into ApplicationContext.xml
