Spring Configuration

Question

I\'ve been reading up on Spring and it keeps talking about the spring configuration data you need, but where do you put this xml file? and what do you save it as? I can\'t s

Answer 1

It depends what your application is, some applications support the configuration of Spring, in this case you will need to check that frameworks documentation.

If it is a standalone application then you can put the file anywhere, but generally it is placed in

src/main/resources

or a subdirectory in resources.

Section 3.2.2 of the Spring docs shows u how to instantiate the ApplicationContext.
