I am java developer and I use your framework "Spring" in my application. I have a problem and I have not found clear answer on Spring official documentation and on any forum.
Problem description.
We have two classes:
public class A {
...
...
}
public class B {
private A a;
public void setA(A a) {
this.a = a;
}
....
....
}
I want use dependency injection mechanism form Spring and inject class A to B when B is created.
Class B is not managed by Spring, when I create class B
I use new
operator, I looked to Spring
documentation and I have found @Configurable
and AspectJ solution, it all work when I have access to
source code of class B and I can put annotation
@Configurable
public class B {
....
....
}
My problem is, I don't have access to source code of class B (let say it comes from some outside library)
and I can't put annotation @Configurable
. Can I replace @Configurable
by some XML definition in xml configuration
file. I haven't found answer for that in Spring documentation (only @Configurable
annotation example)
