The <context:annotation-config /> option was introduced in Spring 2.5. Under the covers, this creates and configures a RequiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor, and uses the order property of that. In Spring 2.0, RequiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor exists, but has no order property.

My guess is that you have both Spring 2.5 and 2.0 on your classpath. The copy of 2.5 would have allowed you to use <context:annotation-config />, but then it used the 2.0 copy for RequiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor.

This looks like a class path issue. Do you mix incompatible versions of different Spring jars, or are there multiple RequiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor classes on your classpath?

Earlier versions of that class (up to 2.0.x) did not have an order property.
