In dependency A I have the following:
<beans>
<bean
id="simplePersonBase"
class="com.paml.test.SimplePerson"
abstract="true">
<property
name="firstName"
value="Joe" />
<property
name="lastName"
value="Smith" />
</bean>
</beans>
And then in project B, I add A as a dependency and have the following config:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans
xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd">
<bean
id="simplePersonAddress01"
parent="simplePersonBase">
<property
name="firstName"
value="BillyBob" />
<property
name="address"
value="1060 W. Addison St" />
<property
name="city"
value="Chicago" />
<property
name="state"
value="IL" />
<property
name="zip"
value="60613" />
</bean>
</beans>
When I use ClassPathXmlApplicationContext like so:
BeanFactory beanFactory = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext( new String[] {
"./*.xml" } );
SimplePerson person = (SimplePerson)beanFactory.getBean( "simplePersonAddress01" );
System.out.println( person.getFirstName() );
Spring complains as it can not resolve the parent xml.
Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No bean named 'simplePersonBase' is defined
I am sure there is a way to do this, however, I have not found it. Does anyone know how?
