Question

For some reason I’m not able to Autowire the ViewResolver:

@Component
public class JsonMultipleViewFactory
{
    @Autowired
    private ViewResolver viewResolver;

    // ...
}

viewResolver is null.

The class JsonMultipleViewFactory is Autowired in a spring controller:

@Controller
public class HomeController
{
    @Autowired
    private JsonMultipleViewFactory jsonMultipleViewFactory;

    // ...
}

I’ve created a github repository containing a very small example reproducing the problem.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you.

I answered on your previous question, with no answer:

In your example, JsonMultipleViewFactory is discovered through
component scanning by parent context (applicationContext.xml).
InternalResourceViewResolver is defined in child context
(test-servlet.xml). So, is normal that parent context can’t see beans
defined in child context. This is the reason why you get a
NoSuchBeanDefinitionException. Try to put all this beans in the same
context.
