Application Context Null in different project and unable to access beans

Question

I have a project (project1) which has beans declared using @component and using application context I am able to access the beans. Now there is another project(spring boot project- project2) in which I am using this project1 as dependency. In that I am trying to access beans of project1 using autowired annotation but it is throwing null pointer exception both for beans and Application context. How can I access application context of project1 which has access to those beans in my project so that I can use both autowired application context and access beans of project1 in project2 Any idea what is wrong and why autowiring not working.

Thanks

Answer 1

You need to import configuration from project 1 into project 2. Something like below

@Configuration
@EnableBatchProcessing
@ComponentScan({"abc.","com.abc"})
@Import({Project1Config.class})
public class Project2Configuration {
}
