Answer 1

I resume and answer here since it is difficult to post code in comments :
As Walfrat said :
You shouldn't create a new PersonServiceImpl but
inject the existing one in the configuration.
because the person service is handled by Spring.
In your context file, for your service com.plianto.dmsservice.MyService, you should declare the existing person service this way :
<bean id="dummyDmsService" class="com.plianto.dmsservice.DummyDmsService">
<property name="personService">
<ref bean="PersonService" />
</property>
</bean>
And then in your class :
public class DummyDmsService{
private PersonService personService;
/**
* #return the personService
*/
public final PersonService getPersonService() {
return personService;
}
/**
* #param pPersonService
* the personService to set
*/
public final void setPersonService(final PersonService pPersonService) {
personService = pPersonService;
}
...
}
