Int'ing public inner classes in XML

[eoliphant]

Hi,
I am using the Apache Commons Pool package and attempting to setup and instance of a public inner class (org.apache.commons.pool.impl.GenericKeyedObjectPo ol.Config).


The spring startup validation is reporting that this class is not found. I've poked through the docs and don't see any refs to this scenario.

Any ideas ?

The class name with be

org.apache.commons.pool.impl.GenericKeyedObjectPool$Config

(Note the final $, not .) You can instantiate configure an inner class so long as it's static.

There are numerous Spring test cases that instantiate static inner classes.
