Inject bean into enum

Question

I have the DataPrepareService that prepare data for reports and I have an Enum with report types, and I need to inject ReportService into Enum or have access to ReportServic

Answer 1

Enums are static, so you have to figure out a way to access to the beans from a static context.

You can create a class named ApplicationContextProvider that implements the ApplicationContextAware interface.

import org.springframework.beans.BeansException;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextAware;

public class ApplicationContextProvider implements ApplicationContextAware{

 private static ApplicationContext appContext = null;

 public static ApplicationContext getApplicationContext() {
   return appContext;
 }

 public void setApplicationContext(ApplicationContext appContext) throws BeansException {
   this.appContext = appContext;
 }
}

then add this your application context file:

after that you could access to the application context in a static way like this:

ApplicationContext appContext = ApplicationContextProvider.getApplicationContext();
