I am using Spring 4.0.6 with Liferay 6.2. Spring isn't able to inject autowired components in to the hook, object comes as null. I have also tried with spring version 3.1 that comes with liferay. Same code works in portlets but not in hooks.
private ApplicationEventPublisher publisher in ActivityEventPublisher.java is null.

ActivityEventPublisher.java
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationEventPublisher;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationEventPublisherAware;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
import connect.activity.solr.document.ActivityData;
@Component
public class ActivityEventPublisher implements ApplicationEventPublisherAware {
private ApplicationEventPublisher publisher;
@Override
public void setApplicationEventPublisher(ApplicationEventPublisher publisher) {
this.publisher = publisher;
}
public ApplicationEventPublisher getPublisher() {
return publisher;
}
public void setPublisher(ApplicationEventPublisher publisher) {
this.publisher = publisher;
}
public void publish(ActivityData data) {
ActivityEvent event = new ActivityEvent(this);
event.setActivityData(data);
this.publisher.publishEvent(event);
}
}
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks
