public abstract class AbstractRefreshableWebApplicationContext
extends AbstractRefreshableApplicationContext
implements ConfigurableWebApplicationContext

AbstractRefreshableApplicationContext subclass that implements the ConfigurableWebApplicationContext interface for web environments. Pre-implements a "configLocation" property, to be populated through the ConfigurableWebApplicationContext interface on web application startup.

This class is as easy to subclass as AbstractRefreshableApplicationContext: All you need to implements is the loadBeanDefinitions method; see the superclass javadoc for details. Note that implementations are supposed to load bean definitions from the files specified by the locations returned by the getConfigLocations method.

Interprets resource paths as servlet context resources, i.e. as paths beneath the web application root. Absolute paths, e.g. for files outside the web app root, can be accessed via "file:" URLs, as implemented by AbstractApplicationContext.

In addition to the special beans detected by AbstractApplicationContext, this class detects a ThemeSource bean in the context, with the name "themeSource".

This is the web context to be subclassed for a different bean definition format. Such a context implementation can be specified as "contextClass" context-param for ContextLoader or "contextClass" init-param for FrameworkServlet, replacing the default XmlWebApplicationContext. It would automatically receive the "contextConfigLocation" context-param or init-param, respectively.

Note that WebApplicationContext implementations are generally supposed to configure themselves based on the configuration received through the ConfigurableWebApplicationContext interface. In contrast, a standalone application context might allow for configuration in custom startup code (for example, GenericApplicationContext).

AbstractRefreshableWebApplicationContext

public AbstractRefreshableWebApplicationContext()
Method Detail

setServletContext

public void setServletContext(ServletContext servletContext)
Description copied from interface: ConfigurableWebApplicationContext
Set the ServletContext for this web application context.

Does not cause an initialization of the context: refresh needs to be called after the setting of all configuration properties.

Specified by:
setServletContext in interface ConfigurableWebApplicationContext
See Also:
ConfigurableApplicationContext.refresh()

getServletContext

public ServletContext getServletContext()
Description copied from interface: WebApplicationContext
Return the standard Servlet API ServletContext for this application.

Specified by:
getServletContext in interface WebApplicationContext

setNamespace

public void setNamespace(String namespace)
Description copied from interface: ConfigurableWebApplicationContext
Set the namespace for this web application context, to be used for building a default context config location. The root web application context does not have a namespace.

Specified by:
setNamespace in interface ConfigurableWebApplicationContext

getNamespace

protected String getNamespace()

setConfigLocations

public void setConfigLocations(String[] locations)
Description copied from interface: ConfigurableWebApplicationContext
Set the config locations for this web application context. If not set, the implementation is supposed to use a default for the given namespace or the root web application context, as appropriate.

Specified by:
setConfigLocations in interface ConfigurableWebApplicationContext

getConfigLocations

protected String[] getConfigLocations()

refresh

public void refresh()
             throws BeansException
Sets a default config location if no explicit config location specified.

Specified by:
refresh in interface ConfigurableApplicationContext
Overrides:
refresh in class AbstractApplicationContext
Throws:
BeansException - if the bean factory could not be initialized
See Also:
getDefaultConfigLocations(), setConfigLocations(java.lang.String[])

getDefaultConfigLocations

protected String[] getDefaultConfigLocations()

postProcessBeanFactory

protected void postProcessBeanFactory(ConfigurableListableBeanFactory beanFactory)
Register ServletContextAwareProcessor.

Overrides:
postProcessBeanFactory in class AbstractApplicationContext

ServletContextAwareProcessor

resolvePath

protected String resolvePath(String path)
Resolve the given path, replacing placeholders with corresponding system property values if necessary. Applied to config locations.

Parameters:
path - the original file path
Returns:
the resolved file path
See Also:
SystemPropertyUtils.resolvePlaceholders(java.lang.String)

getResourceByPath

protected Resource getResourceByPath(String path)
This implementation supports file paths beneath the root of the ServletContext.

getTheme

public Theme getTheme(String themeName)
Description copied from interface: ThemeSource
Return the Theme instance for the given theme name. The returned Theme will resolve theme-specific messages, codes, file paths, etc (e.g. CSS and image files in a web environment).

Specified by:
getTheme in interface ThemeSource
Parameters:
themeName - name of the theme
Returns:
the respective Theme, or null if none defined

toString
