IntelliJ IDEA shows errors when using Spring's @Autowired annotation

Question

IntelliJ IDEA is showing errors when I use Spring\'s @Autowired annotation in the class, but the class is functioning without any problem.

Here is this

Answer 1

Make sure that your IntelliJ Idea (IDE) is aware of all the necessary spring configurations that your module is being inspected against.

You can check this under

File > Project Structure > Modules > [your project name in the right panel] > Spring

Sometimes, we need to explicitly tell the IDE that the spring configuration is coming from a dependency (a jar present in your project classpath)

Answer 2

I had the same problem with IntelliJ IDEA 13.1.4 I solved it by removing the Spring facet (File->Project Structure) and leaving it to just show "Detection".
