Spring ApplicationContext - Resource leak: 'context' is never closed

Question

In a spring MVC application, I initialize a variable in one of the service classes using the following approach:

ApplicationContext context = 
         new C         


        

Answer 1

This worked out best for me.

import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;


public class Test {

     private static ApplicationContext con;

     public static void main(String[] args) {

         con = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("config.xml");

         Employee ob = (Employee) con.getBean("obj");
         System.out.println("Emp Id " + ob.getEmpno());
         System.out.println("Emp name " + ob.getEmpname());
    }
}
