Java Spring Scheduled job not working -

i have web application supposed run scheduled code:

package com.myproject.daemon.jobs;  import org.slf4j.logger; import org.slf4j.loggerfactory;  import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.autowired; import org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.scheduled; import org.springframework.stereotype.component;  @component public class mydaemonjob  {      private static final logger log = loggerfactory.getlogger(mydaemonjob.class);      @postconstruct     public void init() {         log.info("mydaemonjob intialized " );     }      @scheduled(fixeddelay = 1000)     public void startdaemon()  {         try {             log.info("mydaemonjob running ...");         } catch (exception e) {             log.error("encountered error running scheduled job: " + e.getmessage());         }     } } 

it surely recognized spring bean , initialized, can see postconstruct log. method @scheduled annotation never runs although supposed run every 1 second.

here app context xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/xmlschema-instance"     xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context" xsi:schemalocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans                         http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd                        http://www.springframework.org/schema/context                        http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-4.0.xsd">  <context:component-scan base-package="     com.myproject.daemon.jobs,     com.myproject.product" />  </beans> 

thank quick help. helpful.

the code started working, once added config class annotations shown below --

package com.myproject;  import org.springframework.context.annotation.configuration; import org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.enablescheduling;  @configuration @enablescheduling public class appconfig {     // various @bean definitions }
