Dependency injection through constructor in 6.1 is not working as expected

[aginga]

Hi,

The change to the dependency injection though constructor in 6.1 has a really big impact on our apps, and I would really like to know if it can be fixed please.

Sorry, I'm reopening this because my previous ticket was closed. I tried adding parameters=true to the maven compiler plugin as you suggested on the previous ticket, but it made no difference.

Here is a simple example that illustrates the change.

public class Class1 {

--Constructor
public Class1(String arg1, String arg2, String arg3) {
    //do something with arg 1, 2, 3
}

}

In applicationContext.xml

-- This configuration using named args doesn't work anymore in Spring 6.1, it was working in Spring 6.0 and previous versions. Value 3 is injected as arg1, 2 to arg 2 and 1 to arg 3 in this case

--In spring 6.1 the order of arguments must match the order of the arguments in the class, so the configuration of the bean must look like this below, even though the argument names are specified. We have many beans we would have to manually review and update the order of the args

Thanks,
Alina
