SpringBeanProcessor NullPointerException when getBeanClass

[l10178]

I have a bean defined in xml as below:

`

<bean id="xxxService" class="com.xxx.CacheRestFactoryBean"
      lazy-init="true">
    <property name="xxx" value="xxx"/>
</bean>

<bean id="xxxxService" class="com.xxx.CacheRestFactoryBean"
      lazy-init="true">
    <property name="xxx" value="xxx"/>
</bean>

`

org.jboss.resteasy.plugins.spring.SpringBeanProcessor:

if ((beanFactory.getType(name) != null || beanDef.getBeanClassName() != null) && factoryMethodName == null) { return getBeanClass(beanFactory.getType(name).getName()); }

beanFactory.getType(name).getName() will throw NullPointerException for beanFactory.getType(name) is null.

Do we support xml definition of Beans.

Sorry for the delay. I'll have to take a look as I'm not too familiar with Spring. However, typically I would say that an NPE is a bug.

You don't by chance have a simple reproducer for this do you @l10178?

It's a bit difficult. I'll try it later.
