@Qualifier and @Autowired object coming as null

[Jacob Leo]

My code is like below

@Builder(toBuilder = true)
@AllArgsConstructor(access = AccessLevel.PRIVATE)
@NoArgsConstructor(access = AccessLevel.PRIVATE)
@ToString
@EqualsAndHashCode
@Configurable
public class Employee {

      @Autowired
      @Qualifier("findEmpByDepartment")
      private Function<Long, Long> empByDepartment;

       private void save() {
           this.empByDepartment.getList();
       }
}

And FindEmpByDepartment class looks like.

@Component("findEmpByDepartment")
public class FindEmpByDepartment implements Function<Long, Long> { 

    //some thing
}

My problem is I am always getting null when invoke below line

this.empByDepartment.getList();

Here

this.empByDepartment

is coming as null. Any idea why it is like this?

Thanks

Welcome to the Ranch!

If you check at @Configurable, you'll see that the default value for autowire is NO. Try setting that to BY_NAME.
