Class ControllerAdviceBean

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.web.method.ControllerAdviceBean

All Implemented Interfaces:

Ordered

public class ControllerAdviceBean
extends Object
implements Ordered

Encapsulates information about an @ControllerAdvice Spring-managed bean without necessarily requiring it to be instantiated. The findAnnotatedBeans(ApplicationContext) method can be used to discover such beans.

This class is internal to Spring Framework and is not meant to be used by applications to manually create @ControllerAdvice beans.

3.2

Constructor Details

ControllerAdviceBean

public ControllerAdviceBean(String beanName,
 BeanFactory beanFactory,
 ControllerAdvice controllerAdvice)

Create a ControllerAdviceBean using the given bean name, BeanFactory, and @ControllerAdvice annotation.

Parameters:

beanName - the name of the bean

beanFactory - a BeanFactory to retrieve the bean type initially and later to resolve the actual bean

controllerAdvice - the @ControllerAdvice annotation for the bean

Since:

5.2

Method Details

getOrder

public int getOrder()

Get the order value for the contained bean.

The order value is lazily retrieved using the following algorithm and cached. Note, however, that a @ControllerAdvice bean that is configured as a scoped bean — for example, as a request-scoped or session-scoped bean — will not be eagerly resolved. Consequently, Ordered is not honored for scoped @ControllerAdvice beans.

• If the resolved bean implements Ordered, use the value returned by Ordered.getOrder().
• If the factory method is known, use the value returned by OrderUtils.getOrder(AnnotatedElement).
• If the bean type is known, use the value returned by OrderUtils.getOrder(Class, int) with Ordered.LOWEST_PRECEDENCE used as the default order value.
• Otherwise use Ordered.LOWEST_PRECEDENCE as the default, fallback order value.

Specified by:

getOrder in interface Ordered

Returns:

the order value

• resolveBean()

getBeanType

public @Nullable Class<?> getBeanType()

Return the type of the contained bean.

If the bean type is a CGLIB-generated class, the original user-defined class is returned.

resolveBean

public Object resolveBean()

Get the bean instance for this ControllerAdviceBean, if necessary resolving the bean name through the BeanFactory.

Once the bean instance has been resolved it will be cached if it is a singleton, thereby avoiding repeated lookups in the BeanFactory.

isApplicableToBeanType

public boolean isApplicableToBeanType(@Nullable Class<?> beanType)

Check whether the given bean type should be advised by this ControllerAdviceBean.

Parameters:

beanType - the type of the bean to check

findAnnotatedBeans

public static List<ControllerAdviceBean> findAnnotatedBeans(ApplicationContext context)

Find beans annotated with @ControllerAdvice in the given ApplicationContext and wrap them as ControllerAdviceBean instances.

Note that the ControllerAdviceBean instances in the returned list are sorted using OrderComparator.sort(List).
