Hey Roger, If I am understanding you then that is fine.
I often do the same, as I like to have a DAO as well as a Service layer. So inject my DAO's into my Service and my Service into my actions. Good ole' code by interface approach :) -----Original Message----- From: RogerV [mailto:roger.var...@googlemail.com] Sent: 02 November 2009 16:16 To: user@struts.apache.org Subject: Struts 2 Spring Plugin Usage In Mannings "Struts 2 in Action" there's an example of Spring setter-injection by simply specifying the bean to be injected with a basic applicationContext.xml like; <beans> <bean id="securityManager" class="com.myApp.security.PasswordChecker" /> </beans> and everywhere where my action classes have a setSecurityManager() method the PasswordChecker is injected. This works brilliantly. However how far down the "tree" can I go with this simple approach? For example, the securityManager in turn has a setService(Service service) method, and defining an additional <bean id="service" class="........"/> is not working as expected - the injection is not happening whereas <bean id="securityManager" class="com.myApp.security.PasswordChecker"> <property name="service"><ref local="Service"/> </property> </bean> <bean id="Service" class="com.myApp.services.ServicesImpl"/> injects the SecurityManager with the service and then injects the SecurityManager into my Action. Have I missed something or is this working as it should and I'm misunderstanding the book?
