Interface Summary

ScopeMetadataResolver

Strategy interface for resolving the scope of bean definitions.

Class Summary

AnnotatedBeanDefinitionReader	Convenient adapter for programmatic registration of annotated bean classes.
AnnotationBeanNameGenerator	BeanNameGenerator implementation for bean classes annotated with the @Component annotation or with another annotation that is itself annotated with @Component as a meta-annotation.
AnnotationConfigApplicationContext	Standalone application context, accepting annotated classes as input - in particular @Configuration-annotated classes, but also plain @Components and JSR-330 compliant classes using javax.inject annotations.
AnnotationConfigBeanDefinitionParser	Parser for the <context:annotation-config/> element.
AnnotationConfigUtils	Utility class that allows for convenient registration of common BeanPostProcessor and BeanFactoryPostProcessor definitions for annotation-based configuration.
AnnotationScopeMetadataResolver	A ScopeMetadataResolver implementation that by default checks for the presence of Spring's Scope annotation on the bean class.
ClassPathBeanDefinitionScanner	A bean definition scanner that detects bean candidates on the classpath, registering corresponding bean definitions with a given registry (BeanFactory or ApplicationContext).
ClassPathScanningCandidateComponentProvider	A component provider that scans the classpath from a base package.
CommonAnnotationBeanPostProcessor	BeanPostProcessor implementation that supports common Java annotations out of the box, in particular the JSR-250 annotations in the javax.annotation package.
ComponentScanBeanDefinitionParser	Parser for the <context:component-scan/> element.
ConfigurationClassPostProcessor	BeanFactoryPostProcessor used for bootstrapping processing of @Configuration classes.
Jsr330ScopeMetadataResolver	Simple ScopeMetadataResolver implementation that follows JSR-330 scoping rules: defaulting to prototype scope unless Singleton is present.
ScannedGenericBeanDefinition	Extension of the GenericBeanDefinition class, based on an ASM ClassReader, with support for annotation metadata exposed through the AnnotatedBeanDefinition interface.
ScopeMetadata	Describes scope characteristics for a Spring-managed bean including the scope name and the scoped-proxy behavior.

Enum Summary

FilterType	Enumeration of the valid type filters to be added for annotation-driven configuration.
ScopedProxyMode	Enumerates the various scoped-proxy options.

Annotation Types Summary

Bean	Indicates that a method produces a bean to be managed by the Spring container.
Configuration	Indicates that a class declares one or more Bean methods and may be processed by the Spring container to generate bean definitions and service requests for those beans at runtime.
DependsOn	Beans on which the current bean depends.
Import	Indicates one or more Configuration classes to import.
ImportResource	Indicates one or more resources containing bean definitions to import.
Lazy	Indicates whether a bean is to be lazily initialized.
Primary	Indicates that a bean should be given preference when multiple candidates are qualified to autowire a single-valued dependency.
Scope	When used as a type-level annotation in conjunction with the Component annotation, indicates the name of a scope to use for instances of the annotated type.
