Apache Ignite: Unable to start with basic XML config containing expiration policy

Question

I'm attempting to start Ignite with some XML configs, and I'm following the documentation, but I can't get it to start. Here are my configs:

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xsi:schemaLocation="
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd">
  <bean id="ignite.cfg" class="org.apache.ignite.configuration.IgniteConfiguration">
    <property name="cacheConfiguration">
        <list>
            <!-- Partitioned cache example configuration (Atomic mode). -->
            <bean class="org.apache.ignite.configuration.CacheConfiguration">
                <property name="name" value="default"/>
                <property name="atomicityMode" value="ATOMIC"/>
                <property name="backups" value="1"/>
                <property name="eagerTtl" value="true"/>
            </bean>
        </list>
    </property>
    <property name="expiryPolicyFactory">
        <bean class="javax.cache.expiry.CreatedExpiryPolicy" factory-method="factoryOf">
            <constructor-arg>
                <bean class="javax.cache.expiry.Duration">
                    <constructor-arg value="MINUTES"/>
                    <constructor-arg value="5"/>
                </bean>
            </constructor-arg>
        </bean>
    </property>
  </bean>
</beans>

When I try using these configs, I get these exceptions:

$ bin/ignite.sh /path/to/etc/cache.xml class org.apache.ignite.IgniteException: Failed to instantiate Spring XML application context [springUrl=file:/path/to/etc/cache.xml, err=Error creating bean with name 'ignite.cfg' defined in URL [file:/path/to/etc/cache.xml]: Error setting property values; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.NotWritablePropertyException: Invalid property 'expiryPolicyFactory' of bean class [org.apache.ignite.configuration.IgniteConfiguration]: Bean property 'expiryPolicyFactory' is not writable or has an invalid setter method.

I checked the source code for Ignite, and just like the exception states, expiryPolicyFactory is not a property on org.apache.ignite.configuration.IgniteConfiguration.

The Ignite document that I'm using for the config (for setting the expiration policy) is here: https://apacheignite.readme.io/docs/expiry-policies which states:

<bean class="org.apache.ignite.configuration.CacheConfiguration">
    ...

    <property name="expiryPolicyFactory">
        <bean class="javax.cache.expiry.CreatedExpiryPolicy" factory-method="factoryOf">
            <constructor-arg>
                <bean class="javax.cache.expiry.Duration">
                    <constructor-arg value="MINUTES"/>
                    <constructor-arg value="5"/>
                </bean>
            </constructor-arg>
        </bean>
    </property>
</bean>

(I'm using Ignite 2.7.6.)

How am I supposed to define the expiration policy for Ignite?

I just realized that the issue is that I was putting the config in the wrong location. I got this to config work:

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xsi:schemaLocation="
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd">
  <bean id="ignite.cfg" class="org.apache.ignite.configuration.IgniteConfiguration">
    <property name="cacheConfiguration">
        <list>
            <!-- Partitioned cache example configuration (Atomic mode). -->
            <bean class="org.apache.ignite.configuration.CacheConfiguration">
                <property name="name" value="default"/>
                <property name="atomicityMode" value="ATOMIC"/>
                <property name="backups" value="1"/>
                <property name="eagerTtl" value="true"/>
                <property name="expiryPolicyFactory">
                  <bean class="javax.cache.expiry.CreatedExpiryPolicy" factory-method="factoryOf">
                      <constructor-arg>
                          <bean class="javax.cache.expiry.Duration">
                              <constructor-arg value="MINUTES"/>
                              <constructor-arg value="5"/>
                          </bean>
                      </constructor-arg>
                  </bean>
              </property>
            </bean>
        </list>
    </property>
  </bean>
</beans>
