Re: [Springframework-developer] Hibernate session and ApplicationContext

[Andreas R. <ar...@gm...>]

Hi,

setApplicationContext() of an ApplicationContextAware bean is called behind of 
afterPropertiesSet.
So it is not possible to load the referenced bean from within 
afterPropertiesSet.

See AbstractBeanFactory line 518 - 520


Best regards
