I am writing a simple Spring project to get back into Spring. This used to work in version 6.5 with Spring 2.0. Now, I am trying to do Spring 2.5 that comes with MyEclipse and the 7 version of this IDE but i get the following error. I have highlighted it in bold.

Can anyone advise how to fix this simple problem. Thanks.

awebpro,

This class was added in the last point release of Spring (2.5.6) and we currently don’t ship that in MyEclipse. You can easily enough update the version of Spring we ship though by downloading Spring here:
http://www.springsource.org/download

and updating how we define the different Spring libraries under Window > Prefs > MyEclipse > Project Capabilities > Spring

I’ve added an enhancement note for the team to upgrade the version of Spring we ship to correct this if possible though.
