Exception : Bean property 'sessionFactory' is not writable or has an invalid setter method

Question

I am getting below exception:

Bean property 'sessionFactory' is not writable or has an invalid setter method. Does the parameter type of the setter match the return type of the getter?

            if (person != null) {

                System.out.println("Person deleted successfully with id :"
                        + personId);
                count++;
            } else {
                System.err.println("No peron found with id :" + personId);
            }

        }
        return count;
    }

    @Override
    public List<Person> getAllPerons() {
        session = this.sessionFactory.getCurrentSession();
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return session.createQuery("from Person").list();
    }

    @Override
    public Person getPersonById(int id) {
        session = this.sessionFactory.getCurrentSession();
        return (Person) session.load(Person.class, new Integer(id));
    }

}

Adding setter method for sessionFactory in dao class resolves the issue, Howevere I am using @Autowire then Why should I add setter method? ... Can I execute without adding setter method?
