Great work Steven!
I will definitely include this in RIFE since as you say, many people
will want to work like this. Do you think it's feasible to create
some unit tests that check if this integration was done correctly (I
know that this is currently not the case for the
SpringWebParticipant)? I think that a good location would be src/
unittests/com/uwyn/rife/rep/ and maybe you can setup the required
participant and context in programs/unittests/config/rep/
unittests_participants.xml and src/unittests/com/uwyn/rife/
TestRife.java. I haven't really thought this through though. I
suppose you need to be careful to not interfere with existing
repository tests and their properties. Maybe it's actually better to
use your own mock repository for the test, as explained here: http://
rifers.org/wiki/display/RIFE/Repository+mocking+and+testing
Take care,
Geert

What would be swell would be a Spring participant that
automatically adds all the Spring beans to the list of global
RIFE properties. That way you wouldn't have to list the beans in
two places.
As long as Spring supports full introspection of the beans in the
factory, that simply would be an extension of
SpringWebParticipant. You can override the initialize() method.
It's implementation would call parent.initialize() first and then
you can use getRepository().getProperties() to obtain a handle on
the global properties. These can then be filled in.
This works great and I've posted code for it to the Wiki. Do you
think it makes sense to include this as a part of RIFE? It seems to
me that many (most?) people who want to mix Spring and RIFE will
want to be able to freely inject all their Spring beans into RIFE
elements.
