Hi,
For what it's worth, I use @SpringBean to inject service layer beans into
actions. I'll usually put the @SpringBean annotation on a private base
action bean class member variable. This works perfectly fine for me and
I've never seen a reason to even look into doing it any other way. I know
there have some discussions in the past suggesting it might be better if
standard annotations were used. Personally, I've never considered that
enough of an issue to loose sleep over.
Inside my server layer, I make heavy use of @Component,
@Service,@Repository to mark beans that spring should instantiate
automatically. I then use @Autowired to handle most of the wiring.
If you use these annotations then you don't need very much XML in the spring
configuration files. You just have to specify what packages to scan for
classes marked with those annotations and spring takes care of creating
everything and wiring it together.
There are a few cases where you DO need to define the bean entirely w/XML.
One that jumps to mind is cases where you have values in standard java
property files that get injected into bean properties. However, Spring 3.0
has some kind of expression language meant to deal with that as well.
