title: Autowired dependencies coming back null (Every single one of them)
body: <p>Spring seems to resolve and create the autowired objects just fine on boot up. But when I try to access them they come back as null. Anyone have any guesses on what might be going on?</p>
  
  <p>Also XML info is blank as I'm only allowed one hyperlink...</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;beans  xmlns="" 
   xmlns:xsi=""
   xmlns:p="" 
   xmlns:mvc=""    
   xmlns:context=""
   xsi:schemaLocation="...only allowed one hyperlink" default-autowire="byName"&gt;
  
   &lt;mvc:annotation-driven /&gt;
  
  &lt;context:component-scan base-package="com.blah.controller"/&gt;
  &lt;context:component-scan base-package="com.blah.*.service"/&gt;
  &lt;context:component-scan base-package="com.blah.*.dao"/&gt;
  
  &lt;context:annotation-config /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p></p>
  
  <pre><code>public class AuthFilter extends UsernamePasswordAuthenticationFilter {
  
  @Autowired
  private ProfileService profileService;
      //.... Do more stuff below that shows profileService coming back as null.
  
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I was able to use a debugger to show that the object was being initialized. I can paste my logs here if you guys want but that's a lot to back edit :).</p>
  
  <p>Adding a bit to this where authfilter is defined:</p>
  
  <pre><code> &lt;b:bean id="authenticationFilter" class="com.blah.auth.AuthFilter"&gt;
      &lt;b:property name="authenticationManager" ref="authenticationManager" /&gt;
      &lt;b:property name="filterProcessesUrl" value="/login/validate" /&gt;
      &lt;b:property name="usernameParameter" value="username" /&gt;
      &lt;b:property name="passwordParameter" value="password" /&gt;
      &lt;b:property name="authenticationSuccessHandler" ref="authSuccessHandler" /&gt;
      &lt;b:property name="authenticationFailureHandler" ref="authFailureHandler" /&gt;
  &lt;/b:bean&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The component scan is in springapp-servlet.xml</p>
  
  <p>I've created a pastebin of the boot logs. No dice with moving the component scan. <a href="http://pastebin.com/ttC5MPnQ" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://pastebin.com/ttC5MPnQ</a> </p>
