Is there auto-injection going on?

[bosschaert]

Looking at the Spring demo in the User's Guide examples I can see that it references the mcBean and gets injected by it. However the mcBean itself doesn't explicitly reference the SimpleBean...

{code:xml}<bean id="testBean" class="org.jboss.example.microcontainer.spring.SimpleBean">    
   <!-- other stuff -->
   <property name="refBean"><ref bean="mcBean"/></property>
</bean>
<bean xmlns="urn:jboss:bean-deployer:2.0" name="mcBean" class="org.jboss.example.microcontainer.spring.MCBean"/>{code}

however, the MCBean still gets injected by the SimpleBean through the setSimpleBean() method

{code}public class MCBean
{
   public void setSimpleBean(SimpleBean simpleBean)
   {
      System.out.println("Setting simple bean: " + simpleBean);
   }
}{code}

Is there some auto-injection going on or am I missing the declaration for it somewhere?

Looking at section 11.5 from the users guide http://www.jboss.org/file-access/default/members/jbossmc/freezone/docs/2.0.x/userGuide/ch11s05.html autowiring is supported, I just don't see where it seems to be enabled for this example...

There's no auto-injection going on Instead there's an explicit call to MCBean.setSimpleBean from SimpleBean.setRefBean:

public void setRefBean(MCBean refBean)
   {
      System.out.println("Setting ref bean: " + refBean);
      refBean.setSimpleBean(this);
      this.refBean = refBean;
   }

Thanks! I didn't spot that one!
