   Line 20: Configures dao with the data source

In this way, the Spring Framework eliminates the boilerplate code. Now with a stand-alone Java
application you can query the new data access layer that we built using the Spring Framework.
Listing 5-30 illustrates the stand-alone Java application that queries the data access through the
service-layer component BookService.

Listing 5-30. Stand-Alone Application

package com.apress.books.client;
import java.util.List;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;
import com.apress.books.model.Book;
import com.apress.books.service.BookService;

public class BookApp {

public static void main(String[] args) {
ApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("beans.xml");
BookService bookService = (BookService)context.getBean("service");
// List all books
System.err.println("Listing all Books:");
List bookList= bookService.getAllBooks();
