after adding spring webflow, jsf dependencies, i am getting the exception:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.springframework.beans.MutablePropertyValues.add(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/Object;)Lorg/springframework/beans/MutablePropertyValues;

any ideas how to solve this issue ?

This method was added in Spring 3.x

it presents in this spring release: http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/3.0.6.RELEASE/javadoc-api/org/springframework/beans/MutablePropertyValues.html

but is absent in this Spring release: http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/2.5.6/api/org/springframework/beans/MutablePropertyValues.html

It looks like you are using the 2.5.x or older version of org.springframework.beans jar.

Hope it helps.

i found that one of my dependency is downloading spring-beans 2.5.6 A but i don't know what dependency is it, any help ?
it's strange since i am downloading this dependency separately with version 3: <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-beans</artifactId> <version>${spring.version}</version> </dependency>
i tried the command: mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.springframework:org.springframework.beans to find what dependency is downloading the spring beans, and found out that it's: org.springframework.webflow, so i added an exclusion to it but it doesn't work
here's the exclusion: <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.webflow</groupId> <artifactId>org.springframework.webflow</artifactId> <version>2.0.5.RELEASE</version> <exclusions> <exclusion> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-beans</artifactId> </exclusion> </exclusions> </dependency>
and from here mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework.webflow/…, i can find that org.springframework.flow depends on spring version of spring-beans, so it should be 3.0.0, strange

I used latest version of spring 3.0.5 and version 2.2.1 of webflow and exception was gone.
