Configure Spring + Hibernate Transaction Manager

I am trying to configure the transaction manager in Spring in order to annotate my service methods with @Transactional. Unfortunately,I have been looking on others solutions ,but I couldn't find one for me.I am using Tomcat 7.The server starts with no errors but when I call the service method it simply does not recognize @Transacional.

public class GenericDaoImplementation<T> 
{
    private Class<T> entityClass;

    public GenericDaoImplementation(Class<T> entityClass) 
    {
        this.entityClass = entityClass;
    }

    @Transactional(propagation = Propagation.REQUIRED)
    public T getByID(String id)
    {
        Session session = HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory().getCurrentSession();    
        T obj = (T) session.get(entityClass, id);

        return obj;
    }            
}

getByID(String id) is the called method.It has no problem retrieving the data from database if I start a transaction manually.When I annotate it with @Transactional it throws this error :

org.hibernate.HibernateException: get is not valid without active transaction

<!-- SQL dialect -->

<!-- Display all generated SQL to stdout -->

<!-- Drop and re-create the database schema on startup -->
<property name="hbm2ddl.auto">update</property>

<mapping class="dk.accunu.model.entities.User" />

</session-factory>

Please I need some advices.I think it is a configuration problem and I have been trying to solve it for some time already.

If you want to use spring transaction then the class must be declared as a bean either through xml bean configuration or using annotations like @Component,@Service, @Repository.

If you want to use annotations then you need to make sure that the component scan element in your xml configuration can scan your class

You need to register your DAO as a spring component and tell spring where to find it by defining <context:component-scan >. Check out this example.
