SqlMapClientFactoryBean为什么能转为SqlMapClient

在实际操作spring与mybatis整合过程中，经常遇到在spring配置文件中声明的是org.springframework.orm.ibatis.SqlMapClientFactoryBean实例，但是在使用的时候却能转为SqlMapClient使用。原因如下：

这是因为Spring的机制的缘故。简单的说，如果一个bean实现了 FactoryBean接口，那么Spring就不会把该bean本身实例化并返回，而是返回该bean的getObject()返回的对象。这是Sprign的游戏规则。我们来看一眼 SqlMapClientFactoryBean的源码片段：

 
public class SqlMapClientFactoryBean implements  FactoryBean,InitializingBean {
    private SqlMapClient sqlMapClient;
    protected SqlMapClient buildSqlMapClient(Resource configLocation,Properties properties) throws IOException {
        InputStream is = configLocation.getInputStream();
        if (properties != null) {
            if (buildSqlMapClientWithInputStreamAndPropertiesMethodAvailable) {
                return SqlMapClientBuilder.buildSqlMapClient(is,properties);
            } else {
                return SqlMapClientBuilder.buildSqlMapClient(new InputStreamReader(is), properties);
            }
        } else {
            if (buildSqlMapClientWithInputStreamMethodAvailable) {
                return SqlMapClientBuilder.buildSqlMapClient(is);
            } else {
                return SqlMapClientBuilder.buildSqlMapClient(new InputStreamReader(is));
            }
        }
    }
    //这里就是返回的、并会被注入到其它类里的对象
    public Object getObject() {
        return this.sqlMapClient;
    }
}
