Don't use statics at all. It makes your code incredibly difficult to test properly. — Software Engineer, Aug 11 '14 at 15:56

You can use a none static setter for your static variable

public void setStr(String str) {
    your.package.MyClass.str = str;
}

and in your context :

<bean class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.MethodInvokingFactoryBean">
    <property name="yourMethod" value="your.packaged.MyClass.setStr"/>
    <property name="arguments">
        <list>
            <ref bean="str"/>
        </list>
   </property>
</bean>
