Question

I work with spring 3.1.0. I write my xml file as following but there is a underline for property.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop"
    xmlns:util="http://www.springframework.org/schema/util"

    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
     http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop 
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop/spring-aop-3.1.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/util 
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-3.1.xsd
        ">
    <bean id="basic" class="first.BasicBean" />
    <**property** name="msg" value="hello spring"/>

</beans>

what thing I should add to my above codes?

BasicBean:

package first;

public class BasicBean {
    private String msg=null;
    public String getMessage()
    {
        return msg;
    }
    public void setMessage(String msg)
    {
        this.msg=msg;
    }
}

my test code is:

package first;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.*;
import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;

public class BasicBeanTest {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        BeanFactory beanfactory=new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("context.xml");
        BasicBean bean=(BasicBean) beanfactory.getBean("basic");
        System.out.println(bean.getMessage());
    }
}

my errors:

Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.XmlBeanDefinitionStoreException: Line 10 in XML document from class path resource [context.xml] is invalid; nested exception is org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 10; columnNumber: 44; cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'property'.

What is wrong in my codes?

Answer 1

You have the problem in your BasicBean class. It not following the java naming conventions for the pojo class. Your getter and setter methods for peroperty msg is wrong. You need to do following change.

Change the name of property to messsage instead of msg.

I think this will solve your problem. Cheers.
