1. How to create your first project in Spring using eclipse Author : Rajorshi Mukherjee Abstract: This is just a brief walkthrough. NO explanations have been provided.

2. First Steps First download eclipse. (I used Mars as that is the latest version) (http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers/mars2) I recommend downloading JEE version as it can also be used for web app development. JDK 8+ is required to work with this. (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html) Download apache commons logging (using v 1.2) (https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-logging/download_logging.cgi) Download Spring Framework Release (using 4.3.1) (https://repo.spring.io/release/org/springframework/spring/)

3. Change perspective to java and Create a new Java Project

4. Assign Name to project and click finish

5. Right click and goto build path->configure build path

6. Libraries-> Add External Jars

7. Add All Spring Files

8. Add Apache Commons Logging

9. All added jars will be shown

10. Added Jars can be found in Referenced Libraries

11. Create a new package in src folder

12. Give a name and click finish

13. Create a new inteface

14. Give a name and hit finish

15. Add 2 public methods to the interface

16. Create a new class inside the package

17. Give a name and hit finish

18. Add implements interface

19. Mouse hover at red warning and add unimplemented methods

20. Create default constructor and assign value to private String message and define the other two functions

21. Again create a new class

22. Give a name and hit finish

23. This class will contain main method and relevant business logic

24. Rt-Click src folder and goto new -> other

25. Search xml and select xml file -> hit next

26. Give a name to the file and hit finish

27. Add the mandatory beans header and create two beans inside it referencing two separate functions in the same implementation class

29. You should see desired output in the bottom console
