[FIXED] Why spring beans are not created in jar files, but in class files

Issue

I am using spring for some dependency injection via the annotations. The problem ist whenever I start the application and use the .jar ,created by gradle, in the classpath Im getting the following exception: "org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException"

But if the /build/classes/main/ is in the classpath the beans are created and no exception is thrown.

So the beans are created in the build/classes/main/ but not in the build/libs/*.jar

Solution

Set @ComponentScan("classpath*:org.mypackage") to let Spring scan jars as well.
