Use a BOM to solve version issues       you may find that a third-party library  or another Spring project    pulls in a transitive dependency to an older release  If you forget to   explicitly declare a direct dependency yourself  all sorts of   unexpected issues can arise       To overcome such problems Maven supports the concept of a  bill of   materials   BOM  dependency    https   docs spring io spring docs 4 3 18 RELEASE spring-framework-reference html overview html overview-maven-bom   lt dependency gt     lt groupId gt org springframework lt  groupId gt     lt artifactId gt spring-framework-bom lt  artifactId gt     lt version gt 3 2 12 RELEASE lt  version gt     lt type gt pom lt  type gt   lt  dependency gt

You can add spring-context dependency for spring jars  You will get the following jars along with it       lt dependency gt       lt groupId gt org springframework lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt spring-context lt  artifactId gt       lt version gt 5 0 5 RELEASE lt  version gt   lt  dependency gt      if you also want web components  you can use spring-webmvc dependency    lt dependency gt       lt groupId gt org springframework lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt spring-webmvc lt  artifactId gt       lt version gt 5 0 5 RELEASE lt  version gt   lt  dependency gt      You can use whatever version of that you want  I have used 5 0 5 RELEASE here

Since this questions seems to still get quite a lot of views  it might be useful to note that for Spring 4  it s easiest to start using Spring Boot and the Spring Boot starter POMs   Using Spring Boot there s less dependencies to manage  and thus fewer conflicts   and setting up a working  well integrated Spring Context is a whole lot easier  I highly recommend it

You can try this   lt dependencies gt        lt dependency gt           lt groupId gt org springframework lt  groupId gt           lt artifactId gt spring-core lt  artifactId gt           lt version gt 3 1 0 RELEASE lt  version gt       lt  dependency gt        lt dependency gt           lt groupId gt org springframework lt  groupId gt           lt artifactId gt spring-web lt  artifactId gt           lt version gt 3 1 0 RELEASE lt  version gt       lt  dependency gt        lt dependency gt           lt groupId gt org springframework lt  groupId gt           lt artifactId gt spring-webmvc lt  artifactId gt           lt version gt 3 1 0 RELEASE lt  version gt       lt  dependency gt   lt  dependencies gt

What classes are missing   The class name itself should be a good clue to the missing module   FYI  I know its really convenient to include the uber spring jar but this really causes issues when integrating with other projects   One of the benefits behind the dependency system is that it will resolve version conflicts among the dependencies   If my library depends on spring-core 2 5 and you depend on my library and uber-spring 3 0  you now have 2 versions of spring on your classpath   You can get around this with exclusions but its much easier to list the dependencies correctly and not have to worry about it

Spring  nowadays  makes it easy to add Spring to a project by using just one dependency  e g    lt dependency gt    lt groupId gt org springframework lt  groupId gt    lt artifactId gt spring-context lt  artifactId gt    lt version gt 3 1 2 RELEASE lt  version gt   lt  dependency gt     This will resolve to   INFO  The following files have been resolved   INFO     aopalliance aopalliance jar 1 0 compile  INFO     commons-logging commons-logging jar 1 1 1 compile  INFO     org springframework spring-aop jar 3 1 2 RELEASE compile  INFO     org springframework spring-asm jar 3 1 2 RELEASE compile  INFO     org springframework spring-beans jar 3 1 2 RELEASE compile  INFO     org springframework spring-context jar 3 1 2 RELEASE compile  INFO     org springframework spring-core jar 3 1 2 RELEASE compile  INFO     org springframework spring-expression jar 3 1 2 RELEASE compile   Have a look at the Spring Framework documentation page for more information
