The stripes-spring project is only for action beans. This works for any stripes components (interceptors, converters, formatters, action bean context, factories, etc.) as well as fields in your action bean that are instantiated during binding. I usually don't make entities spring beans, but I've seen some people do that..
And it's real simple... just extend object factory and put the package name in your Extension.Packages. IMO this is the cleanest way, ObjectFactory is the correct hook instead of sub-classing every factory. This is probably one reason why it was created for 1.6. I'd like to see all the existing spring stuff deprecated, and a new SpringObjectFactory, EJB3ObjectFactory, etc make it into the trunk. I haven't really had time to test it too thoroughly, I'm not sure why there are 6 or so variants of newInstance in there. I did override the few that were actually referenced by another class within stripes to check my spring context first, and as far as I can tell it works great, very clean. -----Original Message----- From: Dmitri Colebatch [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 24, 2009 8:50 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Stripes-users] Spring managed action beans - any change? > Using the current trunk (not released yet ..

What's the difference between this and the stripes spring work? Is it the same functionality, but built in? Or does it do something else? I'm perfectly happy to use trunk - this is just a little side-project.
