DataSource null in DWR

Hi
I am using DWR for the first time so cant figure out why datasource is null.I tried different things wont wont work.
DWR works without using DB calls and some dummy data but i use SimpleJdbcTemplate and add dataSource...I get exception.
All my DAO classes extend AbstractDataAccess class ...which sets dataSource and i tried extending my Bean to that also but dint help .I can change the design little bit if suggested.

public class AbstractDataAccess implements IDataAccess {

private DataSource dataSource;
	private Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(this.getClass());
	
	@Autowired
	public void setDataSource(DataSource dataSource) {		
		this.dataSource = dataSource;
	}

public DataSource getDataSource() {
		return this.dataSource;
	}
	
	protected SimpleJdbcTemplate getSimpleJdbcTemplate() {
		return new SimpleJdbcTemplate(dataSource);
	}
	
	protected SimpleJdbcCall getSimpleJdbcCall() {
		return new SimpleJdbcCall(dataSource);
	}
	
	protected JdbcTemplate getJdbcTemplate() {
		return new JdbcTemplate(dataSource);
	}

}

----------------
My DWR calss is GeneralDAO class
@Transactional
public class GeneralDAO extends AbstractDataAccess {
	DataSource	dataSource;

// TODO: mock DAO
	
	public List<FormType> getAllFormTypes() throws ConsoleException {

System.out.println("formtypee" + f2.getDescription());
		ParameterizedRowMapper<FormType> mapper = new ParameterizedRowMapper<FormType>() {

@Override
			public FormType mapRow(ResultSet rs, int rowNum) throws SQLException {

FormType form = new FormType();
				form.setCode(rs.getString(2));
				form.setDescription(rs.getString(3));
				System.out.println("formtypee" + form.getCode() + "  " + form.getDescription());
				return form;
			}

};
		String sql = "select * from L_FORMS";
		SimpleJdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate = new SimpleJdbcTemplate(dataSource);// etSimpleJdbcTemplate();

return jdbcTemplate.query(sql, mapper, Collections.emptyMap());

}

public List<EntityType> getEntityTypesForFormType(String formId) throws ConsoleException {

String sql = "select * from L_FORM_ENTITY where FORM_ID";
		if (formId == null) {
		} else
			sql = sql.concat("='").concat(formId).concat("'");
		System.out.println("SQL " + sql);
		System.out.println("entitytypee" + f1.getEntityName());
		SimpleJdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate = new SimpleJdbcTemplate(dataSource);// getSimpleJdbcTemplate();
		ParameterizedRowMapper<EntityType> mapper = new ParameterizedRowMapper<EntityType>() {

@Override
			public EntityType mapRow(ResultSet rs, int rowNum) throws SQLException {

EntityType entity = new EntityType();
				entity.setEntityId(rs.getString(1));
				entity.setEntityName(rs.getString(2));

System.out.println("entitytypee" + entity.getEntityId() + "  "
									+ entity.getEntityName());

return entity;
			}

};

return jdbcTemplate.query(sql, mapper, Collections.emptyMap());
		
	}}

Besides that i get so much confused about configuration of DWR if i should use dwr.xml or applicationContext.xml for configuration or both and different websites mention different things .

And what is the different and application.Context.xml configuration for dwr alone didnt work for me so iadded dwr.xml.

Thanks
but i am not 100% clear.
