Hi Shahed,
As long as you don't use Spring DM 2.0 you don't need to turn off Blueprint.
So I recommend that you use blueprint for all bundles besides the WAB and only
Spring in combination with Spring-DM 1.2 for your WAB.
In Karaf, you just need to install the needed Spring-Features like
Spring-Web and also
Spring-DM (Version 1.2.1). Using this you should be set :)
Oh and you probably need something like this:
<context-param>
<param-name>contextClass</param-name>
(1)
<param-value>org.springframework.osgi.web.context.support.OsgiBundleXmlWebApplicationContext</param-value>
(2)
</context-param>
<listener>
<listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
(3)
</listener>
Regards, Achim
