How to retrieve JNDI using Spring @Configuration instead of XML configuration

Question

I've started development of a new Spring 3.2.4 application and am trying to use Java based configuration instead of XML files as I have used in the past. However, I am having trouble making the transition.

Using XML, I would code it as follows:

<!-- application datasource -->
<bean id="dataSource.jndi" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean" scope="singleton" lazy-init="true">
    <property name="jndiName" value="java:comp/env/jdbc/liment" />
</bean>

<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager" id="transactionManager">
    <property name="entityManagerFactory" ref="entityManagerFactory"/>
</bean>

<tx:annotation-driven mode="aspectj" transaction-manager="transactionManager"/>
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean" id="entityManagerFactory">
    <property name="persistenceUnitName" value="persistenceUnit"/>
    <property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource.jndi"/>
</bean>

However, I am very much stuck trying to figure out how to do this in Java. I'm trying to replicate the configuration, but running into trouble:

@Configuration
@EnableTransactionManagement
@EnableJpaRepositories(basePackages={"com.ia"})
public class AppConfigJPA {
    @Bean
    public DataSource dataSource() {
        // configure and return the necessary JDBC DataSource
        JndiObjectFactoryBean dataSource = new JndiObjectFactoryBean();
        dataSource.setJndiName("java:comp/env/jdbc/liment");
        try {
            dataSource.afterPropertiesSet();
        } catch (IllegalArgumentException | NamingException e) {
            // rethrow
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }
        return (DataSource)dataSource.getObject();
    }

    @Bean
    public EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory(){
        LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean emf = new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean();
        emf.setPersistenceUnitName("persistenceUnit");
        emf.setDataSource(dataSource());
            emf.afterPropertiesSet
        return emf.getObject();
    }

    @Bean
    public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager() {
        return new JpaTransactionManager(entityManagerFactory());
    }

}

However, I get the following error message:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: No persistence exception translators found in bean factory. Cannot perform exception translation.

What am I missing or doing wrong?

EDIT

Following @SotiriosDelimanolis response, I have modified my code to read the following:

@Autowired DataSource dataSource;
@Autowired EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory;


@Bean
public JndiObjectFactoryBean dataSource() {
    // configure and return the necessary JDBC DataSource
    JndiObjectFactoryBean dataSource = new JndiObjectFactoryBean();
    dataSource.setJndiName("java:comp/env/jdbc/josak");
    return dataSource;
}

@Bean
public LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactory(){
    LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean emf = new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean();
    emf.setPersistenceUnitName("persistenceUnit");
    emf.setDataSource(dataSource);
    return emf;
}

@Bean
public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager() {
    return new JpaTransactionManager(entityManagerFactory);
}

But am getting Autowired exceptions instead now:

please refer below link -

http://forum.spring.io/forum/spring-projects/container/724356-how-to-use-javaconfig-to-declare-a-jndi-datasource

the datasource need to be created like this -

@Bean
    public DataSource dataSource() {
        final JndiDataSourceLookup dsLookup = new JndiDataSourceLookup();
        dsLookup.setResourceRef(true);
        DataSource dataSource = dsLookup.getDataSource("jdbc/yourJdbcGoesHere");
        return dataSource;
    }
