[servicemix-user] Example needed - instantiating ServiceMix Client

[Matthew Clark]

Hi there – it would be really useful to have a full example/test showing how to instantiate the ServiceMix client using the Spring XML – extended or pure would be great.   I have tried to get this working several different ways including creating my own listener in order to turn off the validation for the extended Spring XML using both the current release of Spring and the development release included with service mix but always end up with the exception below.  I know the JBI Container has been instantiated because I can get the “jbi” bean and list the component names etc.     INFO  - org.servicemix.jbi.container.JBIContainer - Activating component for: [container=defaultJBI,name=ID:redback-40370-1125972377587-0:18,id=ID:redback-40370-1125972377587-0:18] with service: null component: [EMAIL PROTECTED]   ERROR - org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'client' defined in file [/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28/webapps/NDServe/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml]: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.FatalBeanException: Could not instantiate class [org.servicemix.client.DefaultServiceMixClient]; constructor threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException: null org.springframework.beans.FatalBeanException: Could not instantiate class [org.servicemix.client.DefaultServiceMixClient]; constructor threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException: null java.lang.NullPointerException         at org.servicemix.jbi.management.ManagementContext.getRelativeName(ManagementContext.java:408)         at org.servicemix.jbi.management.ManagementContext.createObjectName(ManagementContext.java:388)         at org.servicemix.jbi.container.JBIContainer.activateComponent(JBIContainer.java:875)         at org.servicemix.jbi.container.JBIContainer.activateComponent(JBIContainer.java:838)         at org.servicemix.jbi.container.JBIContainer.activateComponent(JBIContainer.java:800)         at org.servicemix.jbi.container.JBIContainer.activateComponent(JBIContainer.java:748)         at org.servicemix.client.DefaultServiceMixClient.<init>(DefaultServiceMixClient.java:69)         at org.servicemix.client.DefaultServiceMixClient.<init>(DefaultServiceMixClient.java:59)         at sun.reflect.GeneratedConstructorAccessor75.newInstance(Unknown Source)         at sun.reflect.DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.java:27)         at java.lang.reflect.Constructor.newInstance(Constructor.java:274)         at org.springframework.beans.BeanUtils.instantiateClass(BeanUtils.java:100)         at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.SimpleInstantiationStrategy.instantiate(SimpleInstantiationStrategy.java:75)         at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.autowireConstructor(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:669)         at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.createBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:329)         at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractBeanFactory.getBean(AbstractBeanFactory.java:226)         at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractBeanFactory.getBean(AbstractBeanFactory.java:147) ….. chopped       This message has been scanned for viruses.
