Class ConfigurationClassPostProcessor

java.lang.Object
org.springframework.context.annotation.ConfigurationClassPostProcessor
All Implemented Interfaces:
Aware, BeanClassLoaderAware, BeanFactoryPostProcessor, AotContributingBeanFactoryPostProcessor, BeanDefinitionRegistryPostProcessor, ApplicationStartupAware, EnvironmentAware, ResourceLoaderAware, Ordered, PriorityOrdered

BeanFactoryPostProcessor used for bootstrapping processing of @Configuration classes.

Registered by default when using <context:annotation-config/> or <context:component-scan/>. Otherwise, may be declared manually as with any other BeanFactoryPostProcessor.

This post processor is priority-ordered as it is important that any @Bean methods declared in @Configuration classes have their corresponding bean definitions registered before any other BeanFactoryPostProcessor executes.
