This is common to mix XML configuration into Spring @Configuration, because developers are used to the XML namespaces. In Spring, you can use @ImportResource to import Spring XML configuration files into @Configuration :
AppConfig.java
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ImportResource;
@Configuration
@ImportResource("classpath:/config/spring.xml")
public class AppConfig {
}
Another example
AppConfig.java
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ImportResource;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Import;
@Configuration
@Import({ AppConfigWeb.class })
@ImportResource("classpath:/config/spring.xml")
public class AppConfig {
}
P.S @ImportResource has been available since Spring 3.0
We have a huge spring xml-based project. We would like to change it to spring boot and it is not easy to change everything to @Beans. Just to be begin with, can I keep our old web.xml as it is if I set packaging to war in pom?
Or web.xml should be converted to Config before we can run spring-boot?
FileNotFoundException: Could not open ServletContext resource [classpath:/main/webapp/WEB-INF/spring-servlet.xml]
Tried many path combinations for xml file but didnt work.
Please help.
is there a way to accomlish the same class with Annotations like @Configuration
@Import({ AppConfigWeb.class })
@ImportResource(“classpath:/config/spring.xml”)
using spring2.5.6 ? I know this is available only from spring 3. Please let me know an alternative approach.
If you have a project of spring framework whenever you import file code

In Spring XML, just scan the JavaConfig file. Try below links
