An example of the classic “Hello World!” program in ‘Spring style’, as described in the Pro Spring book from Apress. Consequently, this is a decoupled design, with externalized specification of the concrete classes that will ultimately be used.
You will need:
Project dependencies are declared in the Maven pom file (e.g. Spring).
You can build the project directly from the command-line or open using IntelliJ IDEA and build from there.
Simply use maven to build the project at the command line.
% mvn clean install
Open the project directory using IntelliJ and it will work out the rest.
For convenience, a project file called example-spring-hello-world is already included in the root directory of the project.
Note While the IDE uses the Maven pom file for building, you may have to configure the Maven Settings to ensure it knows where the JDK is installed and at what level of compiler-language compatibility to build at (e.g. Java 8, etc.).
