how to use spring context loader

[gopal g gupta]

Hi freinds

I am new to spring & i made a project in eclipse using maven .

i am using spring & i put below code in my servlet

Resource resource = new FileSystemResource("beans.xml");
BeanFactory factory = new XmlBeanFactory(resource);
MyBean bean=(MyBean) factory.getBean("mybean");


and my beans.xml resides inside project/src folder
this code is working fine

now i want this initialization of beans.xml using springcontextloader
so i made these entries in web.xml file

<listener>
<listener-class>
org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener
</listener-class>
</listener>

<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>beans.xmll</param-value>
</context-param>


now what changes should i made in myservlet to get factory & mybean as above

Hi,
Instead of using what you are now use the following code to create a servlet in web.xml

<servlet>
		<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
		<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
		<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
	</servlet>

	<servlet-mapping>
		<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
		<url-pattern>/*.htm</url-pattern>
	</servlet-mapping>
