Developer Notes: Spring Web Workflow 1.0.6 Maven 2 environment for development

Version 1.0.9 is very old version. However, almost all the examples found in the google search is based on Ant and IVY configuration. Therefore, I thought this blog will be beneficial to the people who are still in Ant configuration.  Time to move to Maven.

The most important point is error in missing class org/springframework/beans/PropertyAccessorFactory because this class is available form Spring version 2.5.2. Therefore early versions of Spring will not work.
