Hi,

I'm new to JSF/Spring/Hibernate and I got an error with a simple jsf
test :
javax.servlet.ServletException: Cannot get value for expression
'#{customerService.dummyString}'

In my jsp page I've put the following code :

<f:view>
<h:form>
<h:inputText value="#{customerService.dummyString}" rendered="true"
    required="false" />
</h:form>
</f:view>

in my java class I've the following code :

public class CustomerGUI {

    private CustomerService customerService;
    private String dummyString;

    public String getdummyString() {
        return "dummyString";
    }
    public void setdummyString(String dummyString) {
        this.dummyString = "dummyString";
    }
    public List<Customer> getAllCustomers () {
        if (customerService != null) {
            return  customerService.getAllCustomers();
        }else {
            return null;
        }
    }

and my faces-config is the following :
