Aries Blueprint can not be used to process spring files. You need to use Spring-DM or Eclipse Gemini Blueprint in order to do that. However, the standardized blueprint syntax is very similar, so most of the plain spring syntax will work with a few minor changes, but custom namespaces aren't compatible, and this is still not spring.
