spring

Curious about how well Scala would play with the Spring Framework, I created a small Scala/Spring dependency injection example project, which I'm sharing here.

The short answer is that Scala worked just fine with Spring, but it also showed me that I still have plenty to learn about inheritance in Scala.

My Spring applicationContext.xml file

I copied a Spring applicationContext.xml file from another project, then whittled it down to these bare essentials:

Spring JDBC/Dao FAQ: Can you share some Spring JDBC examples, specifically SELECT query examples using Spring Dao objects?

Sure. I've done a lot of work with Spring lately, and I love the Spring Dao approach, so this page is a collection of Spring JDBC SELECT query examples (Spring DAO examples) from a real-world Java project I've been working on. In each example I try to show each type of SQL SELECT query that I've used in that project, with a brief explanation before each SQL query.

Spring JDBC FAQ: How do I retrieve the auto-generated database key for a serial field (also known as an auto_increment field in MySQL) after I perform a SQL INSERT using Spring JDBC?

Here's the source code for a standalone Java application where I load a Spring application context file with the ClassPathXmlApplicationContext method. In other blogs I've shown how to load the application context for web applications, but I also wanted to show how to do this for a standalone program.

Here's a source code for my Java program that loads a Spring application context file from the typical main method:

Here's an example web.xml configuration file where I show how to configure the Spring Framework to properly load for a Java web application. I'm intentionally trying to keep this Spring example simple, so my web.xml file has almost the bare minimum configuration.

I show how to load the Spring ContextLoaderListener class with the listener-class tag, and also show how to load multiple Spring application context files using the context-param, param-name, and param-value XML tags.
