Error, Whats missing in Spring NamedJdbcTemplate

Question

I have configured my code to use the NamedParameterJdbcTemplate,

spring.xml

<bean id="netezzaDataSource" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource"> 
    <property name="driverClassName" value="org.netezza.Driver" />
    <property name="url" value="jdbc:netezza://server/DB" />
    <property name="username" value="user" />
    <property name="password" value="password" />
 </bean> 

<bean id="netezzaJDBCTemplate" class="org.springframework.jdbc.core.JdbcTemplate">
    <property name="dataSource" ref="netezzaDataSource"/>
</bean>    

DAO

@Component
public class EventDAO 
{
    @Autowired
    private DataSource netezzaDataSource;
    @Autowired
    private NamedParameterJdbcTemplate netezzaNamedTemplate;

    public NamedParameterJdbcTemplate getNetezzaNamedTemplate() 
    {
        return netezzaNamedTemplate;
    }

    public void setNetezzaNamedTemplate(NamedParameterJdbcTemplate netezzaNamedTemplate) 
    {
        this.netezzaNamedTemplate = netezzaNamedTemplate;
    }
    ..........
}

But it fails to autowire and throws an exception. Am I missing something?

Answer 1

Use Constructor Injection instead of.

<bean id="netezzaJDBCTemplate" class="org.springframework.jdbc.core.JdbcTemplate">
    <property name="dataSource" ref="netezzaDataSource"/>
</bean>  

As NamedParameterJdbcTemplate does not have no args constructor use and because you are using

 @Autowired
    private NamedParameterJdbcTemplate netezzaNamedTemplate;

Configuration need to be like this.

   <bean id="netezzaNamedTemplate" class="org.springframework.jdbc.core.namedparam.NamedParameterJdbcTemplate">
      <constructor-arg ref="netezzaDataSource"/>
   </bean>
