Spring-Enabled Project

To use a project with Spring IDE you have to convert it into a Spring project first. This is done by adding the Spring project nature to it. With the SpringProjectNature a Spring-specific builder is added to the project as well.

A SpringProject adds the following new capabilities to a plain Eclipse project:

• support for Spring BeansConfig files and optional BeansConfigSets (configured via the SpringProjectProperties dialog)
• support for Spring WebFlow config files
