What I'm doing: I'm loading my Spring application external JAR into another non-spring application. I'm doing it like this:
ApplicationContext ap = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("classpath:/META-INF/spring/application-context.xml");
MyService myService = (MyService) ap.getBean("myBusinessService");
this is the exception that I receive:
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'myBusinessService': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: private com.test.domain.dao.MyDAO com.test.domain.service.impl.MyBusinessService.viaggioDAO; nested exception is
org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No matching bean of type [com.test.domain.dao.MyDAO] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency.
Package inside those jar are:
- com.test.domain.service for service Interfaces
- com.test.domain.services.impl for service implementations
- com.test.domain.dao for DAO interfaces
- com.test.domain.dao.impl for DAO implementation
Question: Why am I receiving this error?
EDIT: more info about my app.
