Spring 3.0.5 doesn't evaluate @Value annotation from properties

Question

Trying to auto-wire properties to a bean in Spring 3.0.5.RELEASE, I\'m using:

• config.properties:

  username=myusername
  <

Found what the issue was. Copy/paste from comments:

Are you sure you have <context:property-placeholder> in the same application context as your MyClass bean (not in the parent context)? – axtavt

You're right. I moved <context:property-placeholder> from the context defined by the ContextLoaderListener to the servlet context. Now my values get parsed. Thanks a lot! - alex
