I am completely new to web development using JBoss AS 7.x and I need help on using Infinispan for caching.

What I need is a step-by-step tutorial on using Infinispan in JBoss AS 7.x and I also need a detailed example. All the other example I found hasn't been helpful so far, so can anyone please help me?

Oh and I use Eclipse Juno for development, and I don't use Maven. The development currently uses JBoss AS standalone mode.

I'm sorry if I sound too demanding, any help will be greatly appreciated

I've managed to create this bean by studying examples on the internet.

import java.util.Date;

import java.util.Map;

import javax.annotation.PostConstruct;

import javax.annotation.Resource;

import javax.faces.application.FacesMessage;

import javax.faces.context.FacesContext;

import javax.inject.Named;

import org.infinispan.Cache;

import org.infinispan.manager.DefaultCacheManager;

import org.springframework.context.annotation.Scope;

@Named

@Scope(value="session")

public class CacheinputBean {

  private String data;

  private String data2;

  DefaultCacheManager m = new DefaultCacheManager();

  Cache<String,String> cache = m.getCache();

  public String getData(){

      return(data);

  }

  public void setData(){

      this.data=data;

  }

  public String inputCache(){

      cache.put("data",data);

      return("show-message");

  }

  public String getData2(){

      data2 = cache.get("name");

      return(data2);

  }

}

But it yields these errors

javax.servlet.ServletException: Error creating bean with name 'cacheinputBean' defined in "/C:/jboss-as-7.1.1.Final/standalone/deployments/agciJobPrime.war/WEB-INF/classes/com/agci/testarea/CacheinputBean.class": Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Could not instantiate bean class : Constructor threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems:

I assumed it's because the org.infinispan class cannot be loaded, referring to this

I added an entry to the MANIFEST.IMF file

like so

Dependencies: org.infinispan export

but it still resulted in the same error, can anyone please help me?
