Spring boot circular dependency issue when using gh-cache -

i using spring boot , want cache data here entity , repository classes

places entity class:

@entity @table(name = "place_master") @getter @setter @noargsconstructor @equalsandhashcode(callsuper = true) @component public class placemaster extends baseentity{      @id     @generatedvalue(strategy = generationtype.identity)     @column(name = "place_master_id")     @jsonview(view.place.class)     private long placemasterid;      @column(name = "place_name")     @jsonview(view.place.class)     private string placename;      @column(name = "alt_place_name")     private string alternateplacename;      @column(name = "pincode")     private string pincode;      @column(name="district_name")     private string districtname;      @manytoone (cascade = cascadetype.all)     @joincolumn(name = "state_master_id")     private statemaster statemaster;  } 

state entity class:

@entity @table(name = "state_master") @getter @setter @noargsconstructor @equalsandhashcode(callsuper = true) //@tostring public class statemaster extends baseentity {      @id     @generatedvalue(strategy = generationtype.identity)     @column(name = "state_master_id")     private long statemasterid;      @column(name = "state_name")     private string statename;      @column(name = "state_code")     private string statecode;      @onetomany(mappedby = "statemaster", cascade = cascadetype.all)     private list<placemaster> placemaster = new arraylist<placemaster>(); }   public interface placemasterrepository extends jparepository<placemaster, long> {     @override    @cacheable("places")    public list<placemaster> findall();  } 

bootstrap application class:

@springbootapplication @enablecaching @enableasync @enabletransactionmanagement public class myapplication {     @autowired    private placemasterrepository placemasterrepository;  public static void main(string[] args) throws throwable {         springapplication.run(goyaanaapplication.class, args);     } } 

when run the spring boot application getting below error. due biderectional dependency. please help

caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.beancurrentlyincreationexception: error creating bean name 'entitymanagerfactory': requested bean in creation: there unresolvable circular reference? @ org.springframework.beans.factory.support.defaultsingletonbeanregistry.beforesingletoncreation(defaultsingletonbeanregistry.java:347) @ org.springframework.beans.factory.support.defaultsingletonbeanregistry.getsingleton(defaultsingletonbeanregistry.java:223) @ org.springframework.beans.factory.support.abstractbeanfactory.dogetbean(abstractbeanfactory.java:299) @ org.springframework.beans.factory.support.abstractbeanfactory.getbean(abstractbeanfactory.java:194) @ org.springframework.beans.factory.support.beandefinitionvalueresolver.resolvereference(beandefinitionvalueresolver.java:351)

it best avoid circular dependencies between bean, e.g. moving @enablecaching, @enableasync, @enabletransactionmanagement separate @configuration class.

in cases not possible, can around adding @lazy annotation on @autowired bean. create lazy proxy resolved @ runtime. comes caveat - can't sure @ start of application if wired correctly.

@lazy @autowired private placemasterrepository placemasterrepository; 

for details see spring documentation.
