Spring Autowired with abstract inheritance error

Question

Consider this situation:

I have a class A and B and C.

Class B extends abstract class A and class C want to use class B as a member to perform operations.

@Service
public abstract class A{

}

@Component
public class B extends A{

}


@Service
Public class C {  
  private class B b;

  @Autowired
  public C(Class B b){  // constructor
    this.b = b;
  }    

  private void setB(B b){
    this.b = b;
  }

  private B getB(){
    return b;
  }
}

When ever I try to do a component scan, the tomcat does not load. I have already successful inject beans in this way for non inherit objects.

The error I receive is a listen start error:

Jun 14, 2015 12:09:04 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext startInternal SEVERE: Error listenerStart Jun 14, 2015 12:09:04 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext startInternal SEVERE: Context [] startup failed due to previous errors Jun 14, 2015 12:09:05 PM org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader checkThreadLocalMapForLeaks

Thanks for the assistance.

Answer 1

There was a dependencies issue I was able to print the tomcat stack trace by adding a logging.properties file in the WEB-INF/conf

with this value:

org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[Catalina].level = INFO org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[Catalina].handlers = java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler
