Hi all.
I have a singleton bean definition like this:
<bean id="exampleBean" class="com.examples.ExampleBean">
<property name="exampleBean2">
<bean class="com.examples.ExampleBean2" />
</property>
</bean>
where ExampleBean
could be:
public class ExampleBean {
private ExampleBean2 exampleBean2;
public ExampleBean() { }
public ExampleBean2 getExampleBean2() { return exampleBean2; }
public void setExampleBean2(ExampleBean2 exampleBean2) { this.exampleBean2 = exampleBean2; }
}
The problem is that, in certain conditions, the com.examples.ExampleBean2
class
might not exist at runtime witch will cause an error when the IoC tries to instantiate exampleBean
.
What I need is to ignore this error from IoC and allow the exampleBean
to be created but leaving the exampleBean2
property null
.
So the question is: is this possible in any way?
Thanks for all your help.
