Bean initialization order

amy

Hi

Can I set the order of how beans are initialized?

I have some beans depend on the other beans within the applicationcontext, sometimes I get NullPointerException when I startup my app and sometimes it just works.

Thanks


Code:

Can you post the stack trace and the relevant parts of the application context?

You can specify dependencies between your beens with the quot;depends-onquot; attribute of the quot;beanquot; element. See the DTD for details.

NB - You should only need the depends-on attribute if the dependencies are within your code - Spring should resolve dependencies within the application context automatically.
