All Implemented Interfaces:

public class PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer
extends PlaceholderConfigurerSupport
implements EnvironmentAware

Specialization of PlaceholderConfigurerSupport that resolves ${...} placeholders within bean definition property values and @Value annotations against the current Spring Environment and its set of PropertySources.

This class is designed as a general replacement for PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer in Spring 3.1 applications. It is used by default to support the property-placeholder element in working against the spring-context-3.1 XSD, whereas spring-context versions <= 3.0 default to PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer to ensure backward compatibility. See the spring-context XSD documentation for complete details.

Any local properties (e.g. those added via PropertiesLoaderSupport.setProperties(java.util.Properties), PropertiesLoaderSupport.setLocations(org.springframework.core.io.Resource...) et al.) are added as a PropertySource. Search precedence of local properties is based on the value of the localOverride property, which is by default false meaning that local properties are to be searched last, after all environment property sources.

See ConfigurableEnvironment and related javadocs for details on manipulating environment property sources.

3.1

Method Detail

setPropertySources

public void setPropertySources(PropertySources propertySources)

Customize the set of PropertySources to be used by this configurer. Setting this property indicates that environment property sources and local properties should be ignored.

See Also:

postProcessBeanFactory(org.springframework.beans.factory.config.ConfigurableListableBeanFactory)

setEnvironment

public void setEnvironment(Environment environment)

Set the Environment that this object runs in.

PropertySources from this environment will be searched when replacing ${...} placeholders.

Specified by:

setEnvironment in interface EnvironmentAware

See Also:

setPropertySources(org.springframework.core.env.PropertySources), postProcessBeanFactory(org.springframework.beans.factory.config.ConfigurableListableBeanFactory)

postProcessBeanFactory

public void postProcessBeanFactory(ConfigurableListableBeanFactory beanFactory)
                            throws BeansException

Merge, convert and process properties against the given bean factory.

Processing occurs by replacing ${...} placeholders in bean definitions by resolving each against this configurer's set of PropertySources, which includes:

• all environment property sources, if an Environment is present
• merged local properties, if any have been specified
• any property sources set by calling setPropertySources(org.springframework.core.env.PropertySources)

If setPropertySources(org.springframework.core.env.PropertySources) is called, environment and local properties will be ignored. This method is designed to give the user fine-grained control over property sources, and once set, the configurer makes no assumptions about adding additional sources.

Specified by:

postProcessBeanFactory in interface BeanFactoryPostProcessor

Overrides:

postProcessBeanFactory in class PropertyResourceConfigurer

Parameters:

beanFactory - the bean factory used by the application context

Throws:

BeansException - in case of errors

processProperties

protected void processProperties(ConfigurableListableBeanFactory beanFactoryToProcess,
                                 ConfigurablePropertyResolver propertyResolver)
                          throws BeansException

Visit each bean definition in the given bean factory and attempt to replace ${...} property placeholders with values from the given properties.

Throws:

BeansException

processProperties

@Deprecated
protected void processProperties(ConfigurableListableBeanFactory beanFactory,
                                             Properties props)

Deprecated. in favor of processProperties(ConfigurableListableBeanFactory, ConfigurablePropertyResolver)

Implemented for compatibility with PlaceholderConfigurerSupport.

Specified by:

processProperties in class PropertyResourceConfigurer

Parameters:

beanFactory - the BeanFactory used by the application context

props - the Properties to apply

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException

getAppliedPropertySources

public PropertySources getAppliedPropertySources()
                                          throws IllegalStateException

Returns the property sources that were actually applied during post-processing.

Returns:

the property sources that were applied

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the property sources have not yet been applied

Since:

4.0
