SpringServer Parameters NOT WORKING (HELP!)

[dev dev]

We have spent a bit of time on this and we cannot seem to find ways to get
this to work for such a simple configuration. We are using version 1.1-M2.

Simple method to start the server.

  public static void start() throws Exception {
        // Start the Restlet component
        Component component = (Component) SpringContextLoader.getBean
("component");
        Server server = (Server) SpringContextLoader.getBean("server");

        logger.debug("value1:: " + server.getContext
().getParameters().getFirstValue("key1"));
        logger.debug("value2:: " + server.getContext
().getParameters().getFirstValue("key2"));
        component.start();
    }

Spring XML configuration.

 <bean id="component"
        class="org.restlet.ext.spring.SpringComponent">
        <property name="server" ref="server" />
        <property name="defaultTarget" ref="application" />
        <!--<property name="hosts">
            <list>
                <ref bean="virtualHost" />
            </list>
        </property> -->
    </bean>

    <bean id="server" class="org.restlet.ext.spring.SpringServer">
        <constructor-arg value="http" />
        <constructor-arg value="8182" />
        <property name="parameters">
            <props>
                <prop key="key1">value1</prop>
                <prop key="key2">value2</prop>
            </props>
        </property>
    </bean>

    <!--<bean id="virtualHost" class="org.restlet.ext.spring.SpringHost">
        <property name="hostDomain"
            value="mydomain.com|www.mydomain.com" />
        <property name="attachments">
            <map>
                <entry key="/">
                    <ref bean="application" />
                </entry>
            </map>
        </property>
    </bean> -->

Here are the output.

value1:: null
value2::null

Anyone have seen this problem or this parameters are not very useful anyway
so don't use it since it doesn't work anyway. We are using SimpleFramework
as the connector and are there any properties associated with this connector
like (number of connections per server pool etc..) and we can define in the
Spring application context file.

Thanks
