dependency inject servlet listener

Question

In my Stripes app I define the following class:

MyServletListener implements ServletContextListener, HttpSessionListener, HttpSessionAttributeListener {

  p         


        

Answer 1

Something like this should work:

public class MyServletListener implements ServletContextListener, HttpSessionAttributeListener, HttpSessionListener {
    @Autowired
    private SomeService someService;        
    @Autowired
    private AnotherService anotherService; 

    public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent sce) {
        WebApplicationContextUtils
            .getRequiredWebApplicationContext(sce.getServletContext())
            .getAutowireCapableBeanFactory()
            .autowireBean(this);
    }

    ...
}

Your listener should be declared after Spring's ContextLoaderListener in web.xml.
