How to access a method a Spring Bean from a class not in the Spring Container

Question

I\'m not a Spring pro, so please bear with me....

I have three classes:

class SpringBeanA {
    public aMethod() {
        .....
    }
}

class SpringBea         


        

Answer 1

Either you make Spring manage your NONSpringClass and enable injection of SpringBeanB in NONSpringClass class or you have to manually inject a proper instance of SpringBeanB in your NONSpringClass reference. In the latter approach, Spring has nothing to do, and you manually have to create the necessary instances and inject them using setters.
