Upgrading Spring Version to 5 with Apache Orchestra

Question

We are trying to upgrade the spring version to 5 from 4.2 in an existing project. In this project we have apache orchestra dependency which we are using for creating a custom conversation scope. After making the version changes, we can launch the application but we are getting some error at the places where we use the custom scope. Please see the exception below :

Our server is JBoss EAP 6.4.9.GA.

Spring version : 5.0.2.RELEASE

myfaces-orchestra-core20 version 1.5

This is how we define the custom scope :

<bean class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.CustomScopeConfigurer">
    <property name="scopes">
        <map>
            <entry key="conversation.manual">
                <bean
                    class="org.apache.myfaces.orchestra.conversation.spring.SpringConversationScope" >
                    <!-- No timeout value should be specified as this is not extended through 
                        activity -->
                </bean>
            </entry>

            <entry key="conversation.access">
                <bean
                    class="org.apache.myfaces.orchestra.conversation.spring.SpringConversationScope">
                    <!-- No timeout value should be specified as this is not extended through 
                        activity -->
                    <property name="lifetime" value="access" />
                </bean>
            </entry>
        </map>
    </property>
</bean>

Thanks
