Failed to read candidate component class

异常原因：使用了jdk1.7.0_51

解决思路：

1.先在Java Compiler中将Compile compliance level设置成1.7
2.将jdk的版本从jdk1.7.0_51升级1.7.0._79以上就可以能正常运行
注意：当我把jdk升级到1.8以上的同时将Compile compliance level设置成1.7还是会报相同的错误

总结：最后找到了其它的资料，个人比较认可的分析原因：
spring3.*不能使用jdk8.0 要保证你的eclipse使用的是1.7，tomcat使用的是1.7
