Inject static property

[jaabio]

Hi, all.

I can't seem to find any documentation on how to inject the value of a static property of class A into a property of class B. Specifically, I want to inject the value of HTTPService.RESULT_FORMAT_E4X into an instance of another class using Spring AS. Any ideas?
I tried using factory-method already. That didn't work.
Here's what I tried -

<object id="b" class="B">
	<constructor-arg>
		<object class="mx.rpc.http.HTTPService" factory-method="RESULT_FORMAT_E4X" />
	</constructor-arg>
</object>

Thanks much.

Hi there,

Take a look at the FieldRetrievingFactoryObject (http://www.springactionscript.org/do...ther_obj ects).

This should do the trick:

<object id="b" class="B">
  <constructor-arg>
    <object class="mx.rpc.http.HTTPService">
      <property name="resultFormat">
        <object class="org.springextensions.actionscript.ioc.factory.config.FieldRetrievingFactoryObject">
          <property name="staticField" value="mx.rpc.http.HTTPService.RESULT_FORMAT_E4X"/>
        </object>
      </property>
    </object>
  </constructor-arg>
</object>

Cheers

Hi,

you can also use the "util" namespace for this:

<util:constant static-field="mx.rpc.http.HTTPService.RESULT_FORMAT_E4X"/>

Be sure to add the UtilNamespaceHandler to the application context.
