How to use java enum as bean in spring

My goal I want to achieve is to introduce enum in Spring managed bean.

I do not want my bean to be configured in XML (there is no reason for this other than this non-working enumeration).

I have a simple maven project:

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>net.betlista</groupId> <artifactId>test.spring.enum-injection</artifactId> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId> <version>3.1.3.RELEASE</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-aspects</artifactId> <version>3.1.3.RELEASE</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>aspectj</groupId> <artifactId>aspectjrt</artifactId> <version>1.5.4</version> </dependency> <!-- testing --> <dependency> <groupId>junit</groupId> <artifactId>junit</artifactId> <version>${junit.version}</version> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-test</artifactId> <version>3.1.3.RELEASE</version> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> </dependencies> <properties> <junit.version>4.11</junit.version> </properties> </project> 

I created a simple test

 import net.betlista.spring.enum_injection.EnumInjectionComponent; import org.junit.Assert; import org.junit.Test; import org.junit.runner.RunWith; import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired; import org.springframework.test.context.ContextConfiguration; import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringJUnit4ClassRunner; @RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class) @ContextConfiguration("classpath:applicationContext.xml") public class TestClass { @Autowired EnumInjectionComponent component; @Test public void test() { Assert.assertNotNull(component.roundingMode); } } 

and my bean is

 package net.betlista.spring.enum_injection; import java.math.RoundingMode; import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired; import org.springframework.stereotype.Component; @Component public class EnumInjectionComponent { @Autowired public RoundingMode roundingMode; } 

When I try to run my Ipm test, getting

 java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to load ApplicationContext at org.springframework.test.context.TestContext.getApplicationContext(TestContext.java:157) at org.springframework.test.context.support.DependencyInjectionTestExecutionListener.injectDependencies(DependencyInjectionTestExecutionListener.java:109) at org.springframework.test.context.support.DependencyInjectionTestExecutionListener.prepareTestInstance(DependencyInjectionTestExecutionListener.java:75) at org.springframework.test.context.TestContextManager.prepareTestInstance(TestContextManager.java:321) at org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.createTest(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.java:211) at org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringJUnit4ClassRunner$1.runReflectiveCall(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.java:288) at org.junit.internal.runners.model.ReflectiveCallable.run(ReflectiveCallable.java:12) at org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.methodBlock(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.java:290) at org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.runChild(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.java:231) at org.junit.runners.BlockJUnit4ClassRunner.runChild(BlockJUnit4ClassRunner.java:50) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner$3.run(ParentRunner.java:238) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner$1.schedule(ParentRunner.java:63) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.runChildren(ParentRunner.java:236) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.access$000(ParentRunner.java:53) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner$2.evaluate(ParentRunner.java:229) at org.springframework.test.context.junit4.statements.RunBeforeTestClassCallbacks.evaluate(RunBeforeTestClassCallbacks.java:61) at org.springframework.test.context.junit4.statements.RunAfterTestClassCallbacks.evaluate(RunAfterTestClassCallbacks.java:71) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.run(ParentRunner.java:309) at org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.run(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.java:174) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.junit4.runner.JUnit4TestReference.run(JUnit4TestReference.java:50) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.junit.runner.TestExecution.run(TestExecution.java:38) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.junit.runner.RemoteTestRunner.runTests(RemoteTestRunner.java:467) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.junit.runner.RemoteTestRunner.runTests(RemoteTestRunner.java:683) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.junit.runner.RemoteTestRunner.run(RemoteTestRunner.java:390) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.junit.runner.RemoteTestRunner.main(RemoteTestRunner.java:197) Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'enumInjectionComponent': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: public java.math.RoundingMode net.betlista.spring.enum_injection.EnumInjectionComponent.roundingMode; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No matching bean of type [java.math.RoundingMode] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency.

But in the log I see:

INFO: Destroying solitary org.s pringframework.beans.factory.support.DefaultListableBeanFactory@ 236527f: defining beans [Org.springframework.context.config.internalBeanConfigurerAspect, org.springframework.context.annotation.internalConfigurationAnnotationProcessor, org.springframework.contextnowtopuringworkationationoporotationationoprocessation. context.annotation.internalRequiredAnnotationProcessor, org.springframework.context.annotation.internalCommonAnnotationProcessor, enumInjectionComponent, rounding, org.springframework.context.annotation.ConfigurationClassPostProcessor.importAwareProcessor]; root from factory hierarchy

So I have a bean rounding in context.

What did I miss?

edit: I just found the problem with Spring version 3.1.x only, in 3.2.x it works, is there any workaround available?

edit2: here is the definition of beans

 <?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:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context" xsi:schemaLocation=" http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd "> <context:spring-configured /> <context:annotation-config /> <context:component-scan base-package="net.betlista"/> <bean id="rounding" class="java.math.RoundingMode" factory-method="valueOf"> <constructor-arg value="UP" /> </bean> </beans> 

Edit3:

as a workaround. I used the Dev Blanked traversal method to specify a list, and use @Value in my bean as

 @Value("#{roundingModes[0]}") public RoundingMode roundingMode; 

if there is a better (nicer) solution I would like to see -)

It should be possible to specify the name of the bare enumeration name and indicate the type of value. The following is an example in which the rounding mode was entered into the list. must be the same for the property.

 <util:list id="roundingModes" value-type="java.math.RoundingMode"> <value>UP</value> </util:list>

Another approach that can be used is to specify UP as String and bean to implement the InitializingBean interface and create an enumeration in afterPropertiesSet() from that String.

 @Override public void afterPropertiesSet() throws Exception { roundingMode = RoundingMode.valueOf(roundingModeName); }
