@ComponentScan on external library not working

In my spring boot project i have to use a external library which it has define beans in spring context. So in my Application class i have add below which are the base package for bothe my project and the external library,

@SpringBootApplication(exclude = SecurityAutoConfiguration.class)
@EnableHypermediaSupport(type = { EnableHypermediaSupport.HypermediaType.HAL })
@EnableSwagger2
@ComponentScan(basePackages = {"com.mylibrary.test", "com.otherlibrary.springtool"})
//@EnableDiscoveryClient
public class Application extends RepositoryRestMvcConfiguration {
}

But the beans in other library such as @Configuration are not initialize?

I had something similar when I was trying to use open feign interfaces coming from an external lib and then I had to add the @EnableFeignClients(basePackages = {"lib.pckg"}), because the Feign had to create the beans for me, not the Spring IoC.

It would be good if you provide some log error.

@ComponentScan works for the classes that are annotated with @Component, @Repository or @Service. Make sure classes in "com.otherlibrary.springtool" are annotated with above annotation to be found or else you have to declare them as Spring beans with @Bean annotation. Hope it helps.
