This version is still in development and is not considered stable yet. For the latest stable version, please use Spring Boot 3.3.5! |
Configuration Classes
Spring Boot favors Java-based configuration.
Although it is possible to use SpringApplication with XML sources, we generally recommend that your primary source be a single @Configuration class.
Usually the class that defines the main method is a good candidate as the primary @Configuration.
Many Spring configuration examples have been published on the Internet that use XML configuration.
If possible, always try to use the equivalent Java-based configuration.
Searching for Enable* annotations can be a good starting point.

Importing Additional Configuration Classes
You need not put all your @Configuration into a single class.
The @Import annotation can be used to import additional configuration classes.
Alternatively, you can use @ComponentScan to automatically pick up all Spring components, including @Configuration classes.
