I am working on spring and hibernate, i am getting this following exception which i am unable to debug

Below is the error stacktrace:

My StudentDAOImpl Class which will implements StudentDAO interface will have methods like

StudentDAO interface

public void saveStudent(final Student student);

public List<Student> getAllStudents();

public void update(final Student student);


StudentDAOImpl Class



 import java.util.List;

    import javax.persistence.EntityManager;
    import javax.persistence.PersistenceContext;
    import javax.persistence.Query;

    import org.hibernate.Session;
    import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;

    import com.sh.dao.StudentDAO;
    import com.sh.model.Student;

    @Repository
    public class StudentDAOImpl implements StudentDAO {

        @PersistenceContext
        private EntityManager entityManager;

        public Session getSessionObj() {
            return (Session)entityManager.getDelegate();
        }

        @Override
        public void saveStudent(final Student student) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            System.out.println("saving object state to DB");
            entityManager.persist(student);
            entityManager.getTransaction().commit();
            System.out.println("saved successfully");

        }

        @Override
        public List<Student> getAllStudents() {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            System.out.println("retrieving all student details from DB");
            List list = null;
            String hql = "from Student as student";
            Query query = entityManager.createNamedQuery(hql);
            list = query.getResultList();
            System.out.println("list size from getAllStudents "+list.size());
            return list;
        }

        @Override
        public void update(final Student student) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            System.out.println("updating student object to DB");
            Session session = getSessionObj();
            session.beginTransaction();
            session.update(student);
            session.getTransaction().commit();
            System.out.println("updated successfully");

        }

        public void setEntityManager(EntityManager entityManager) {
            this.entityManager = entityManager;
        }

    }

Finally Main Class

public static void main(String[] args) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        System.out.println("main method ");

        AbstractApplicationContext abstractApplicationContext = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("SpringBeans.xml");
        System.out.println("next");
        Student stud = abstractApplicationContext.getBean("student", Student.class);
        stud.setStudentName("Alan");
        StudentDAOImpl studentDAOImpl = abstractApplicationContext.getBean("studentDAO", StudentDAOImpl.class);
        studentDAOImpl.saveStudent(stud);
        List list = studentDAOImpl.getAllStudents();
        if(list!= null && list.size()>0) {
            Iterator itr = list.iterator();
            while(itr.hasNext()) {
                Student student = (Student)itr.next();
                System.out.println(student.getId()+"\t"+student.getStudentName());
            }
        }
    }

Please try to help me.

Any answers are highly appreciated

The answer to this question should apply here as well: EntityManager and persist method not working properly

In short: Remove

<property name="entityManager" ref="entityManagerFactory"></property>

from the definition of your studentDAO-bean in the SpringBeans.xml. It is already injected via the component scan.
