Spring context loading problem in Osgi

Question

Hi,

I'm using Spring's FileSystemXmlApplicationContext in Osgi activator. Unfortunately, it doesn't load any bean from the provided XML files. I'm sure that it finds the xml configuration files, because I was testing with incorrect name of my xml configuration file, and it threw an FileNotFoundException.

Here is a snippet from my code:

    FileSystemXmlApplicationContext appContext1=new FileSystemXmlApplicationContext("classpath*:app-container-config.xml");
    System.out.println("output for file: app-container-config.xml");
    System.out.println(appContext1.getBeanDefinitionCount());
    String[] names=appContext1.getBeanDefinitionNames();
    for (int i = 0; i < names.length; i++) {
        String string = names[i];
        System.out.println(string);
    }

This code returns this:

output for file: app-container-config.xml
0

even thought I have more than 0 beans in my app-container-config.xml file.

Thanks in advance
