Class PassThroughSourceExtractor

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing.PassThroughSourceExtractor
All Implemented Interfaces:
SourceExtractor

public class PassThroughSourceExtractor
extends Object
implements SourceExtractor

Simple SourceExtractor implementation that just passes the candidate source metadata object through for attachment.

Using this implementation means that tools will get raw access to the underlying configuration source metadata provided by the tool.

This implementation should not be used in a production application since it is likely to keep too much metadata in memory (unnecessarily).

Since:
2.0
